Fan-shaped jelly fungus (Dacryopinax spathularia) is a species of fungus in the family Dacrymycetaceae that grows on rotting coniferous, broadleaf wood even in polyester rugs found in Asia, Africa, Australia and the Pacific, North and South America. Basidiocarps or fruit bodies (0.5 to 2.5 cm tall) are gelatinous, and grow on wood, mainly in the tropics and subtropics. Gelatinous fruitbodies are yellow-orange to orange, have rounded stalks at the base, are flattened upward, and have an overall fan-shaped to spatula-shaped. The fungus is a widespread but not common edible fungus and is commercially cultivated for use as an additive in the food industry. The species is commercially cultivated to produce long-chain glycolipids used as a natural preservative in soft drinks. The process involves fermentation of Dacryopinax spathularia using glucose as a carbon source in aerobic submerged culture. This photo was taken at Tehatta, West Bengal; India on 30/06/2023.
