Jew's ear (Auricularia auricula-judae, which has the recommended English name jelly ear, also known as Judas's ear or Jew's ear, is a species of fungus in the order Auriculariales. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are brown, gelatinous, and have a noticeably ear-like shape. They grow on wood, especially elder. The specific epithet is derived from the belief that Judas Iscariot hanged himself from an elder tree; the common name "Judas's ear" was largely eclipsed by the corruption "Jew's ear".: Аурикуля́рия ухови́дная или Иу́дины уши (лат.
