Cthulhu Mushroom?!
    #19331550 - 12/27/13 02:59 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

What the hell is this monstrosity growing on this tree? It was about as big as a basketball. Unfortunately, this was as close as I could get, due to terrain and weather. Any ideas?

From the shape it looks like it could be an old specimen of a Pleurotus sp.
I've seen them get sort of chtulu-esque in old age with shrivelled margins a bit like yours.

I never remember seeing them in basketball size though.

It is probably something else. You should try to catch it with a better camera if possible.
