Merulius tremellosus
Saprobic, on pine stump. Slick to the touch. Hairy cap with deep grooved underside. Have not viewed spores yet.
Saprobic on pine logs and stump in Southeastern Alabama.
This fungus has colonized approx. 10 different pine logs in my yard. I am glad to know that there is a fungus here that will naturally break down the stumps of the pine trees I need to have removed.
