This is an interesting polypore - as all members of the genus, this polypore is characterized by the production of leathery to corky tough and brown fruitbodies lacking a stipe, but sporting a lamellate hymenial surfaces. Gills are Irregular and often fusing; edges are yellow-brown becoming darker brown with age;
Observed on a dead log rotting inside the beautiful Bagasse forest (deciduous, predominantly oak, forest) on France-Switzerland border, in a valley of lake Geneva, just in between Jura and Alps mountains ranges.
