Turkey Tail look alike - ID plz
    #23526958 - 08/10/16 02:45 AM (7 years, 6 months ago)

I found this growing on a dead branch in NZ and wonder if that could be
a turkey tail.

To give you a scale for the pore sizes, the embossed dots on the paper towel
are about 1mm

Cheers

Copied from http://www.mushroomexpert.com/trametes_versicolor.html

Totally True Turkey Tail Test

1) Is the pore surface a real pore surface? Like, can you see actual pores?

Yes: Continue.
No: See Stereum ostrea and other crust fungi.

2) Squint real hard. Would you say there are about 1-3 pores per millimeter (which would make them fairly easy to see), or about 3-8 pores per millimeter (which would make them very tiny)?

3-8 per mm: Continue.
1-3 per mm: See several other species of Trametes.

3) Is the cap conspicuously fuzzy, velvety, or finely hairy (use a magnifying glass or rub it with your thumb)?

Yes: Continue.
No: See several other species of Trametes.

4) Is the fresh cap whitish to grayish?

Yes: See Trametes hirsuta.
No: Continue.

5) Does the cap lack starkly contrasting color zones (are the zones merely textural, or do they represent subtle shades of the same color)?

Yes: See Trametes pubescens.
No: Continue.

6) Is the fresh mushroom rigid and hard, or thin and flexible?

Rigid and hard: See Trametes ochracea.
Thin and flexible: Totally True Turkey Tail.

Oh yeah I know about that test but lost the specimen I've collected....
had only the photos left on my hard drive. So I went through it but wasn't
too sure about a couple of things.

Thanks for your help guys, that does encourage me to go and get some
more of them if I can find the time to do so.

Cheers
