There are "bumps" on the mouth of the coral which is indicative of a Yuma.
Very Nice BTW.

Yumas are in the hairy mushroom family and sometimes they do come in from Asia labled as hairy, when they are what we my call yuma and on the orther hand we call any hairy mushrom that has color as yumas

Hairy mushrooms are Rhodactis indosinensis, yumas are Ricordea yuma, completely different. They both are from the Pacific though.
I can't see the pic now but I saw it earlier and it is usually called a Flower mushroom or at my lfs they label them Tonga mushrooms. They are Ricordea yuma.
