It is a shelf fungus which does not have a stipe The hymenium is pored. Additionally, it is white and thick; it feels very corky. At first, I thought that it was a Piptoporus betulinus. However, after discussing it with Professor Williams, we decided that it did not fit that identification. After trying to identify for some more time with Professor Williams, we decided that this was unidentifiable at the time.
