Slide 76.
Ramaria acrisiccescens is believed to be mildly poisonous.
It is one of a few Ramaria species that are suspected of causing
mild gastrointestinal upset, though none have caused a very severe poisoning.
Ramaria acrisiccescens is unlikely to be eaten in quantity because
on drying or cooking, it develops a pronounced bitterish-acid taste. However,
some yellow Ramaria species resembling Ramaria aurea can
cause significant diarrhea.
