Wikipedia
coral fungus
The clavarioid fungi are a group of fungi in the Basidiomycota typically having erect, simple or branched basidiocarps (fruit bodies) that are formed on the ground, on decaying vegetation, or on dead wood. They are colloquially called club fungi and coral fungi. Originally such fungi were referred to the genus Clavaria ("clavarioid" means Clavaria-like), but it is now known that clavarioid species are not all closely related. Since they are often studied as a group, it is convenient to retain the informal (non-taxonomic) name of "clavarioid fungi" and this term is frequently used in research papers.

coral fungus
Coral fungus, also known as Ramaria or Clavaria, is a type of fungus that resembles underwater coral with its multiple branches extending from a single base. It gets its name from its appearance that mimics a coral's intricate, many-forked, tree-like branch system. They can be found in various colors and are often found growing on decaying wood and soil rich in humus throughout forests. Some species are edible while others can be toxic.
