User's notes

Creamy white rubbery fungi that looked like plates nailed to the underside of a fallen tree. Pam, I wondered whether these were the same type that the indigenous used for their young when teething, just a different colour? They were very tough and rubbery with the top the same as the bottom. In some placed they grew very elongated but in others they were separate discs.

Unfortunately I am only able to take this to 'Polypore sp.' It's not one I'm familiar with, though I do know that it's not the Trametes coccinea, the 'orange one' as that is always orange.
