| Black polypores dwarfing the stump they're growing on. |
I think this may be a Ganoderma sp., but any photos I find of them on the web are labelled only "Black bracket fungus". They seem to have a pale lip, maybe the edge of a light underside, but I couldn't get close enough to see that.
I've never seen the black variety of shelf fungus. I'll have to keep an eye out for it. - Margy
ReplyDeleteI think we've just seen these in port orford Oregon. On the property we were checking out. Huge and hard shell .
ReplyDeleteI have found huge shelf polypore mushrooms with dark brown or black flesh here in the Willamette forest in Oregon. I thought they were Ganoderma Oregonese but the flesh is a different color from others I find. I am not ready to make tincture or tea with the darker fleshed ones until I can be more confident in identification. Also a heavy brown dust on the top of them.
