Species ID Suggestions

Comments (3)

P. cinnabarinus should be the only species of Pycnoporus growing in your area. The P. cinnabarinus I've found don't have the yellow edge or the black center, so I can't offer a positive ID.
I'm not sure that Pycnoporus sanguineus occurs in North America (references say it occurs in the tropics) but it would be good to know since I have some cool red bracket fungus that I haven't been able to identify yet either.
If it is on wood it may be the pycnoporus sanguineus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pycnoporus_sanguineus but I am not sure and the dark colors among the fungi don´t make it that clear; a fungi expert may help you further... Greetings and nice spotting.
