hey marta, when you are not sure , you can compare it with the "related spotting" and/or enter the latin name by: soortenbank.nl / rogers mushrooms / mushroom expert / eol / wikip. and so on. The "split gill" is very good describe through out the internet. The common name is "split gill" / the latin "schizophyllum commune" . here references: ( http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/7516048 ) / ( http://www.soortenbank.nl/soorten.php?soortengroep=paddenstoelen&menuentry=soorten&id=974&tab=beschrijving ). this link i gave you already on another spotting, and these site used the same pictures as from my nl-paddenstoelen book.
Hi Alex, unfortunately I did not check for the gills. It looks alike the species you mention but I cannot tell for sure. I can propose it as ID anyway :-)
had it gills, marta? when so, then you can id this one as schizophyllum commune - splitt gill -- i almost sure it had gills !!
