Polypore Identification
    #18841887 - 09/14/13 06:19 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

Hello I found these mushrooms today, and I would like to have a second opinion. After some research I would conclude that they are Lenzites betulina, yet I think it may be useful to have clarification and also simply to share my find with you. Here are the pictures below.

Habitat: Wood - Found in deciduous woods, growing straight from a fallen rotting tree.

Gills: See picture

Cap: Brown, 2-3 inches across.

Spore print color: Unknown

Bruising: White

Location: Europe

Lenzites seems like a good guess. Was it growing on birch?

no not on birch, on a fallen oak tree, if my memory serves me right.

I would call this a young Daedalea quercina. Labyrinths look too firm to be Lenzites, and are closed. Habitat also points to Daedalea.

Looks more like daedaleopsis quercina to me.

Really? I got it backwards once again, then. I thought it had changed to daedaleopsis. I'm too lazy to check that sort of thing :lol:

After comparing the two, it seems that I was wrong. Thank you very much for correcting me, this forum is excellent.

As for its uses, I am aware after some quick and sporadic research that it is been investigated for its properties.

One of which is, the anti-inflammatory effects of its compound qeurcinol.

Is there any knowledge of its use, as a tincture, or tea or similar.

Thanks again, for the quick response, much appreciated.
