AI-generated description

Ramaria eumorpha is a species of coral fungus that grows up to 10 cm tall, with yellow to orange-yellow branches and a white to yellowish base. In St. Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast, it typically fruits from July to October in coniferous and mixed forests, often on sandy soils. In north-western Russia, it is commonly found in the same habitats, particularly under pine and spruce trees, and can form large colonies. The fungus is considered rare in the region, but can be locally abundant in suitable areas.
