Looks like Ganoderma curtisii, the last one might be different.

All appear to be G.curtisii

Although there are a lot of pine needles in the first batch there, if it was growing on a pine tree than it is G.meredithae instead.

Sometimes when they age they get a curled lip. Can happen in several of the red laccate species, it seems to be environmental.

The black coloration comes from oxidization of the red pigments. Without clearer pictures though I cant say for sure what you have in that last photo.

They are indeed Ganoderma sessile they were cloned from the specimen in the photo I posted above, Under artificial cultivation nearly any Ganoderma species will take an antlered form like that. It can be difficult to distinguish species but what makes me think curtisii for yours is the color progression. Because curtisii has more yellow and stays yellow longer than other species.

As you can see the growth forms in Ganoderma can be highly variable with several species resembling eachother. Which is why there are so many different species being sold as Ganoderma lucidum. But there are traits that can distinguish them, the coloration, and with curtisii and similar how that coloration matures is one. The flesh color and texture, microscopy can be a big help too.

Mine had the coloring in the photo from day one, a few cm of white followed by a short band of yellow then shiny red.

Here is a curtisii grown under the same conditions.



It starts out more yellow then slowly turns red over time.

There is a slightly different sessile Ganoderma on the west coast growing on hardwoods. It is mostly in California, but I have a sample from Oregon, and have reason to suspect it occurs in Washington as well. It tends to be a bit thicker and more bulbous than the east coast variety.

Ganoderma polychromum.

A few observations from Mushroom observer that shows typical form.

Note the cross section and the vivid dark bands, these are lacking or faint in eastern specimens.

http://mushroomobserver.org/179414?q=2dNRa

http://mushroomobserver.org/169273?q=2dNRa

Here is also a comparison of the spores, with G.polychromum tending to be slightly larger than eastern sessile and slightly darker.

Thanks for posting that Ganoderma sessile .  I found one a few days ago; haven't got around to posting it.  Now I know what it is.

Wikipedia says you can make a tea from it.
