Ramaria
The genus ''Ramaria'' comprises approximately 200 species of coral fungi. Several, such as '' Ramaria flava'', are edible and picked in Europe, though they are easily confused with several mildly poisonous species capable of causing nausea, vomiting and diarrhea; these include '' R. formosa'' and '' R. pallida''. Three ''Ramaria'' species have been demonstrated to contain a very unusual organoarsenic compound homoarsenocholine. Etymology The genus name is derived from Latin ''rāmus'' meaning ''branch''. Description Basidiocarps may range in color from bright yellow, red, or orange, to purple, white, and shades of tan. Color changes after bruising occur in some species. The spores of ''Ramaria'' species are yellow-brown to rusty-brown in mass deposit and range from smooth to warted to echinulate or striate; spore size may range considerably, and ornamentation, when present, is cyanophilous. Classification Hjomsköld was the first to introduce the name ''Ramaria'' in 1790. P ...

Ramaria Botrytis
''Ramaria botrytis'', commonly known as the clustered coral, the pink-tipped coral mushroom, or the cauliflower coral, is an edible species of coral fungus in the family Gomphaceae. Its robust fruit body can grow up to in diameter and tall, and resembles some marine coral. Its dense branches, which originate from a stout, massive base, are swollen at the tips and divided into several small branchlets. The branches are initially whitish but age to buff or tan, with tips that are pink to reddish. The flesh is thick and white. The spores, yellowish in deposit, are ellipsoid, feature longitudinal striations, and measure about 13.8 by 4.7 micrometers. The type species of the genus ''Ramaria'', ''R. botrytis'' was first described scientifically in 1797 by mycologist Christiaan Hendrik Persoon. A widely distributed species, it is found in North America, North Africa, central and eastern Europe, Australia, and Asia. The fungus is mycorrhizal with broadleaf trees, and fr ...

Ramaria Formosa
''Ramaria formosa'', commonly known as the salmon coral, beautiful clavaria, handsome clavaria, yellow-tipped- or pink coral fungus, is a coral fungus found in Asia, Europe and North America. It is widely held to be mildly poisonous if consumed, giving rise to acute gastrointestinal symptoms of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and colicky pain. It is a pinkish, much-branched coral-shape reaching some high. Some forms collected in North America often lack the bitter taste common to European specimens and may represent a different species. Taxonomy The fungus was initially described by Christian Hendrik Persoon in 1797 as ''Clavaria formosa''. In 1821, Elias Magnus Fries sanctioned the genus name ''Clavaria'', and treated ''Ramaria'' as a section of ''Clavaria''. It was placed in its current genus by French mycologist Lucien Quélet in 1888. Synonyms have resulted from transfers of the fungus to the now obsolete genera ''Merisma'' by Harald Othmar Lenz in 1831, and to ''Corallium'' by ...

Ramaria Acrisiccescens
''Ramaria acrisiccescens'', commonly known as the blah coral, is a coral fungus in the family Gomphaceae. It is found in the forests of northwestern North America. Taxonomy The species was first described scientifically by mycologists Currie Marr and Daniel Stuntz in their 1974 monograph, "''Ramaria'' of western Washington". The holotype was collected in 1966 about south of Elbe, Washington. It is classified in the subgenus ''Laeticolora''. It is commonly known as the "blah coral". Description The whitish fruit bodies are large, generally taller than wide, measuring tall by wide. The stipe, which is often deeply buried, is slender and tapered, measuring by wide. Fruit bodies consist of elongated branched with a roughly parallel arrangement. Each branch itself branches up to 9 times in a dichotomous fashion; each of these branches is slender, typically 1–12 mm in diameter. The branch tips are usually rounded. The context has a fleshy or fibrous consistency, but it ...

Ramaria Abietina
''Phaeoclavulina abietina'', commonly known as the green-staining coral, is a coral mushroom in the family Gomphaceae. It is characterized by the green staining reaction it develops in response to bruising or injury. Taxonomy The species was first described by Christian Hendrik Persoon in 1794 as ''Clavaria abietina''. It is commonly known as the "green-staining coral". It was classified in the genus ''Ramaria'' (in the subgenus ''Echinoramaria''), until molecular phylogenetic showed that ''Ramaria'' was polyphyletic. Description Fruit bodies are leathery, and brittle when dry. They are small, measuring tall by wide, and branch from the central stem up to five times. The slender branches are slightly flattened or spreading, and forked or crested near the top. The color of the fruit body is medium yellow green to light olive, but will bruise a darker olive green to dark olive green. The stem is short, and have a mat of mycelia at its base, which is attached to rhizomorphs t ...
