Oh right! Thanks vitog. 

According to Mushroom Expert "stereum hirsutum" refers to a group of very similar species. The species name "hirsutum" means "hairy. The ones seen here appear to not be very hairy, although it may be difficult to see velvety surfaces in the photo . Another name to explore is Stereum lobatum. This latter species will stain yellow on the underside if a dry specimen is wetted. S. gausapatum stains/bleeds red when the underside is scratched.
