AI-generated description

Ramaria flava is a yellow to golden-yellow coral fungus with cylindrical to clavate branches, typically 3-8 cm tall and 1-4 cm broad. It has been found in St. Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast, often fruiting in late summer to early autumn in coniferous and mixed forests, particularly under spruce and pine trees.
