[ID request] some kind of oysters?
    #23548256 - 08/16/16 09:19 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

Habitat:
Alberta, birch forest, slope, lots of lying dead wood around, growing possibly from the soil, possibly from underground dead wood (didn't think to check at the moment). Didn't see any on the logs themselves.

Mushrooms grow in large groups, on top of each other, most likely each group branches off a shared stem (it is barely visible on a few of the photos).

Gills:
Tan/creamy/ivory, lightly decurrent, crowded, straight (no branching).

Stem:
Length 3-8cm.
Diameter 0.5-2cm.
Color: tan, same as cap.
Mostly solid, some a bit hollow, but not uniformly so (see pics).

Cap:
Up to 10-15cm
Tan/creamy/ivory
Smooth
Depressed/wavy/splitting on edges

Spore print color:
Unfortunately I chose an immature specimen, so there is no visible spores on white paper after 3 days (nothing under microscope either).

Bruising:
No color change when bruising.

Other information:
Scent is very pleasant, what I think tasty mushrooms should smell like.

I can't decide between branching oysters, elm oysters and angel wings. Never seen any in real life and all internet pics have gills branching or not so crowded.

3 kilos are blanched and frozen awaiting a solid ID... :smile:

Sorry for image sizes, bbcode doesn't seem to accept height and width restrictions...

I'm wondering if it might be a Leucopaxillus giganteus or maybe a Clitocybe.

Can't be Leucopaxillus giganteus I think -- they seem to grow individually (if I'm reading right reference). The ones on the pics are always growing in groups on top of each other, branching off single base. On the first pic, that's one or two bases showing multiple heads through the grass.

Not oysters, sorry.
