Mushroom69 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 Found these oyster looking mushrooms today here in northern NY. Anyone know the exact name? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOHNY Posted November 7, 2020 Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 Sorry, but no amount of PhotoShopping brings the undersides into a clear view for me. Are there gills? If, yes, you are significant step ahead in calling those Oysters but spore printing is always a good idea for safety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted November 7, 2020 Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 As was said, the undersides are difficult to evaluate. But, I think these are polypores (pores on the underside rather than gills). If the flesh is flexible/soft/not-brittle, then maybe Tyromyces chioneus (White Cheese Polypore). Need more info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mushroom69 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 It is soft and flexible and definitely not a oyster lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted November 8, 2020 Report Share Posted November 8, 2020 Tyromyces chioneus looks like a reasonable proposal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
