    Found numerous mushrooms in the woods in Athens County, Ohio, Saturday. Unfortunately, one of the mushroom sites I usually use is down and the other doesn't have a developed key to polypores.

    I think #2 might be a Crepidotus species, but I'm not at all sure.

    I don't know what they are but I love the decorative effect they give to rotten tree stumps and branches. :D

    My favorite mushroom website is working again and #2 is considered something in the genus Crepidotus. Glendann, you were right, that is typically considered an oyster mushroom, although it isn't related to Pleurotus.
