Hello !
This is on the tip of my tongue (I have a very long tongue).
I would have said photograph it again in a few weeks time, but it looks to me like you have removed it to photograph the underside.
I do not know - sorry.

Hi Neill.
Thanks for the comments.
It is a difficult one.
I put the question a week ago into
a Dutch forum and did not get an answer.
So I tried it on Wild about Britain.
The search will go on!!!

It seems to be a sort of Polypore, but looking at the photo showing the brown upper surface, there seems to be pores beginning to form, suggesting the log it is growing on may have been turned over 180 degrees and stunting the growth.

Hi Neil and jaerdam,
the colour on the last photograph reminds me on Oligoporus lacteus.
Cheers,

I'd be interested to know what this is - I have a very large specimen that looks just the same which was found in the bole of an old dead horse chestnut.
Fused together cos of its situation, and dried when I got it, but still very similar.
What wood was this one on as substrate?
Could it be an Inonotus or Antrodia spp?
Cheers
Ken

It might be worth a try looking up Postia tephroleuca, the colour looks right to me, but shape is all over the place.
