Chicken of the Woods

I see.. Thanks for the comment gully, and thanks for the ID Corduneanu..

My initial impression was of a young Laetiporus species too. It could be L. sulphureus, but it does seem more likely to be another species due to it's tropical location. Or it could well be something completely different!

It's worth noting that many guides only write 'Europe and North America' for distributions because they are the areas where fungi are most thoroughly researched and the target markets of the books. Certainly if the spores of a fungus manage to cross the Atlantic it seems likely they can cross the land board to Asia.

I don't think so, Laetiporus sulphureus is from Europe and North America..

I think this is a young Chicken of the Woods (Laetiporus Sulphureus)
