Wild Mushrooms of Ainsworth: Split-Gill Polypore
(Click on images to enlarge)
I thought I had posted some pics of these before, but I can't find them, which is just fine because the pics I took before were even worse.
My mushroom book is out on loan at the moment, so I can't look up anything authoritative about these. A little internet looking-around reveals that their scientific name is Schizophyllum commune, and you can buy split-gill polypore extract if you want to.
I don't know which side is up on these things, so I just call it split side (above) and fuzzy side (below).
Found on a dead tree limb on the forest floor in Deep River County Park.
