| | | Oyster-like fungus on rotting log 
With some trepidation I would like to ask for views on the likely identification of this fungs found last weekend (10/12) growing on and in a rotting pine log. Could it be Panellus or Crepidotus spp? |

| | | Re: Oyster-like fungus on rotting log This does look like Crepidotus mollis, but I'm surprised there is no sign of any elasticated cap cuticle on the broken sample - perhaps it stuck to the piece that is missing or perhaps is not C.mollis.

| | | Re: Oyster-like fungus on rotting log Thanks for the clarification. No, I didn't peel the cap - but note that this is easily done and a good characteristic. You now give me confidence to pose further questions... |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
