Exidia alveolata is a species of fungus in the family Auriculariaceae. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are gelatinous, pale smoky brown, alveolate (shallowly pitted like a honeycomb), and with sparse pegs or spicules on the surface. The species is currently known only from its original collection in Ecuador.[1][2]
