Though I'm not particularly familiar with either myxomycetes or jelly fungi, I suspect this is a slime mould rather than a fungus due to the substrate.

I think you might be right. @Teresa what do you think?

Must agree with Pam's ID, @trevorpreston, this fluffy white stuff is appearing all through our local forests atm, usually on soil but it often overlays onto small twigs, stones and partially buried branches.
