A spring fruiting of Platterful was brought about by last night's rain. Many well-decayed logs have several of these mushrooms emerging. They have large caps with very broad gills and dark brown radial fibrils. Spore print is white.

Anne,
Is this a type of oyster mushroom. I found some on decaying wood alone and in clusters. Edges are curved under when young and flare upward as it matures. Buff colored on top and white, wide gills, resembling the oyster. These have thick stems with a bulb as it enters the wood.
