Clavulina cinerea, commonly known as the gray coral or ashy coral mushroom,[1] is a species of coral fungus in the family Clavulinaceae. This grayish white edible fungus stands 2–10 centimetres (3⁄4–4 in) tall,[2] and can be found on the ground from July to October in Northeastern North America and until November in Europe.[3]
It can be eaten raw in small amounts or as a cooking ingredient, and it can be preserved in oil.[3]
