Weird oysters/lawn reishi

Recommended Posts

I found some oysters on stumps today. They were old and browning and they almost seemed fuzzy. After completing my walk through the dry woods I noticed something familiar growing through the neighbors lawn. I pulled it and under it was a red stem and a stump.

I couldn't help but wonder if these oysters were not a different type. They even smelled a little different.

Lentinellus works for me, with this observation. The gills appear to be serrated (saw toothed).

I think the polypores are something other than what I'd call Reishi. The Reishi types are also called Varnished Polypores, on account of the shiny reddish varnished appearnace of the caps. The genus is Ganoderma.
