Panellus stipticus
The smaller fruiting bodies were orange-pink with some zonation and white fuzz. The larger fruiting bodies were brownish with wavy margins and white fuzz on the upper surface. Cross gills and short gills were present.
Growing on the end of a rotting, cut log in a meadow.
By day, this mushroom is unassuming, common, and mostly overlooked. But, it becomes a spectacular beauty at night with its bioluminescent gills, which incidentally make a decent nightlight when camping.
