Comment: I had recently received some mushroom pictures
and a note from Andy
Neice, asking me for the possible ID of the mushrooms. I had to get
help on the ID, but after getting Andy's offer to send more pictures as he
found them on his rides, I decided to make a page just for some of the
pictures taken from the area. John Plischke III had sent me
some of his colorful pictures years ago, so I began the page with those.

pictures. Enjoy!

Laetiporus
cincinnatus, from Andy Neice, found by the side of the road in
Giles
County, Virginia.
Note from John Plischke III: "...Some older
books will call it Laetiporus sulphureus
var. alba. Every time I
find one of them, they are always growing in a rosette.
The pores
are often whitish-looking but never yellow. I have eaten
it many times
here in Pennsylvania."

Hi: I found this mushroom
next to my driveway after an unusually wet month of June. I live in
southern New Jersey. It looks to similar to the Laetiporus cincinnatus
that was pictured on your web site. We've got several was wondering if
you could positively identify it for me. We've got several different
mushrooms popping up all over the yard, which is quite woodsy.
