Unverified Jelly-like; smooth, featureless surface
There certainly are yellow to orange, wood-inhabiting ascomycetes, which may angle their cup-like surfaces in various directions, though mostly the cups face upward. Some of the orange species of Orbilia might be confused with Heterotextus. However, Orbilia frutibodies are typically gregarious, closely packed and they don’t expand to resemble a broad cone.
