Tremella aurantia is a species of fungus in the family Tremellaceae. The common name of this species is golden ear.[1] T. aurantia is similar in appearance to witch's butter, Tremella mesenterica, but has basidia which are stalked instead of sessile[2] and parasitizes the mycelium of Stereum hirsutum instead of Peniophora.[3]
