Herbarium specimen reported

Notes: This was growing on treated wood from an outdoor deck (not the wood from the photograph). The specimen was rehydrated and placed on that surface so that it could be photographed easily. These are very small, the entire cluster is 1 cm, each lobe is about 1-2mm thick and about 3-4mm wide.

Summary: Still looking for basidia

Having trouble finding the basidia, I found spores still attached to the basidia but couldn’t make out any detail about the basidia. Spores have turned out actually to be ellipsoid rather than globose. I think Dacryopinax spathularia might be a possibility because you can make out a spatula shape on a couple of the fruitbodies, also its preference for growing on structural wood, and spore characters are consistent.

Summary: I will update this with better microscopy

I don’t think there is enough here to go on at the moment.
