Need help with these two findsplease
    #21011594 - 12/22/14 10:17 AM (9 years, 4 months ago)

This was growing on the ground of mixed woods. They were medium sized with whithish/pale gills (kinda look serrated :confused:).

The cap was kind of dried up but it had a specific darker spot on top.

The stem was overall pale with brown scales below the ring. I'm not familiar with this, and when I followed an ID key it led me to Lentinus on account of the serrated gills but that's about as good as it gets and I'm probably wrong :shrug:. Here are some pics of it:








I guess this the closest to snow I've ever seen :tongue2: Pure white polypore:

The first one might be Tricholoma.


Not sure who the European polypore experts are, try mushroomobserver.org for the second.  And also maybe the first.

Maybe Tricholoma caligatum or something similar.

Postia sp.? Did you taste?

I didn't taste it, I'm pretty clueless when it comes to polypores :blush:

That has to be a Quercus sp, that's a spot I go to regularly and there are only Quercus sp, Pinus pinaster and Eucalyptus, from those 3 that log's got to be Quercus, most probably Quercus ilex.

I'll try to find some info on your suggestion, thank you.

I'm not good with polypores either. It is usually a winter phenomenon for me - in high season I seem to ignore
them in favor of agarics.

I just thought it reminded me a bit of a young Postia stiptica, which should taste bitter and have kind of soft flesh.
If it is, yours is a young specimen. I reckon you didn't pick it? Leave it working and if possible go back to check it
in a while.

I'm nowhere near sure, though.

It could very well be Postia stiptica, no doubt this was a young specimen.

I'll try to check it again this weekend, thanks :smile:

So yesterday I went to the spot where I'd found the polypore, the specimens seem to have developed some yellowish shades. When picked up it bruised in a red wine color. The inside is overall chocolate brown and velvety, I haven't tasted it yet :rolleyes:

I also noticed that while attached to the tree it didn't have a very strong smell but when removed it started having a pretty intense mushroomy odor:
