Habitat: Where does it grow? Eg. woods, pasture, state, province, country, altitude, etc. What does it grow on? Eg. soil, dung, wood (dead, living, what kind of wood?), etc.
in the forest around giant birches and maples. Gills: Color, attached/not, gills/pores, etc.
not really gills.
Stem: Length, diameter, color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc. very short cream colored Cap: Diameter, color, texture, conical/spherical, convex/concave, etc. bright red, small black fibrils
Spore print color: Very important! didnt pick it, its rare and undocumented in BC if it is what i think it is.
Bruising:
Color that the mushroom bruises, if any.
Other information: Scent of the mushroom, anything else you think is important, large close-up pictures showing stem, cap and gills.

I was thinking Fomes fomentarius for 4?
I'm guessing Laricifomes officinalis is too rare for it to be that?

It might be helpful if you number your photographs as well, mate. It might get confusing now that they're spread across more than a single post, otherwise.

I suppose the other one that I mentioned is completely out of the question? I heard that it's a rather rare species, so it probably isn't that.

Your polypore doesn't look like Fomes fomentarius to me. They're usually hoof-shaped and are as tall or taller than they are wide. It could be Ganoderma brownii. It does have the "stacked pancake" look of Laricifomes officinalis, but I have no experience with that, so I can't say. Was it growing on Douglas fir or larch? I know Symon found something before that I thought may have been Laricifomes officinalis. Definitely the right general area for it. Did you ever get a solid ID on that?

are you refering to that cool "conkman" from last fall? Well Micahel Beug id'd on E flora.com as Ganoderma applanatum. This looks similiar too i guess.
what about the first one Bob , are you familair with Pseudaleuria quinaultiana ? you know its rare when you post a thread, then google the species and see your own post is the first thing that comes up!

Ya its friggin sweet eh! i find alot of polypores kinda boring but this one was a real beauty ! Hopefully this land doesnt get developed soon and it gets to grow. Its near my house so if i see them clearing the land i will bring my chainsaw and bring it home.  Heres another view.
Anyone or an TI know what that crust fungus is called or if you agree with my Pseudaleuria id?

A random guess for your crust fungus could be Junghuhnia

He forgot to take a pic of the underside. Turn on macro mode and cover 95% of the flash with something opaque.

I am not about to argue with that guy.
However I find G. appalanatum every day and it never looks like that.

I think your Ganoderma could indeed be G. applanatum. I have found some older specimens that stack, however not quite like that one you found! That's really cool! If you can, you should go back and mark the underside of the conch with a stick or something, it should leave an immediate dark brown streak like you just wrote on it with a pencil. Something akin to what you see in my signature in fact . Cool find!

Good question... I had to double check that. BC has 5 species of Junghuhnia that I can find
Junghuhnia collabens Junghuhnia luteoalba Junghuhnia nitida Junghuhnia separabilima Junghuhnia zonata
