Observation 30778: Ganoderma curtisii (Berk.) Murrill
When: 2009-10-31
Collection location: Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA [Click for map]
No specimen available
Notes:
It is very stiff in comparison to the majority of other fungi/mushrooms I have seen. I had a difficult time identifying it; however, next I will enjoy getting it open and putting it under the scope for further study. I have also uploaded a few photo’s as none are that great and they are different angles.
