Lumpy Bracket Mushroom

Trametes gibbosa

Description:

Green and cream-colored shelf fungus. This is possibly a Lumpy Bracket Mushroom (or even a Turkey Tail Mushroom?, which can come in many color varieties, from green to brown). However, it was growing on a live tree and it is supposed to grow on dead wood.

Habitat:

Forest of the Chiflon Waterfall below Tzimol, Chiapas, Mexico.

Well, the turkey tail mushroom is of the same genus as the lumpy bracket; they both belong to Trametes.

Thank you kunzah for the identification. Could it also be a greenish Turkey Tail Mushroom?
