Turkeytail (Trametes versicolor)

Like the name ´versicolor´ suggests this mushroom can have diferent colors (and shapes), but the fertile surface is always bright white.

    Definitely not T. versicolor. It is way more flimsy/thin than the fungi posted here. This could be a Trametes species, but definitely not the one listed. Posted 4 years ago
