RHH's photos with the keyword: squamosus

I believe (thanks to J. Gafarot) that this is Polyporus squamosus or Dryad's Saddle, a Bracket Fungus. It was photographed in Dowagiac Woods in Michigan and is an example here of guttation, mushrooms and plants producing beads of "sweat". Dowagiac Woods is in southern Michigan and an area where some of the original forest has been preserved.

This is an example of guttation in fungi and other plants, the exudation of drops of "sweat", a process by which a plant rids itself of excess moisture. The mushroom is Polyporus squamosus or Dryad's Saddle.

I believe that this is a fungus called Dryad's Saddle (Polyporus squamosus). It is exhibiting a strange phenomenon called guttation, the exudation of drops of moisture.

This, if I am not mistaken, is a fungus known as Dryad's Saddle, Polyporus squamosus. It is exhibiting a phenomenon known as guttation, the exudation of drops of moisture.

This mushroom was photographed in Aman Park in western Michigan. J. Gafarot has identified it as Polyporus squamosus.
