   What I thought was two clusters of Gymnopilus was actually only a single   
   cluster.  There was a rosette of aged Laetiporus cincinnatus, faded to a   
   chalky-salmon color, next to the Gymnopilus.  Didn't try to fit both in   
   the picture, because I was using the macro setting on the camera lens.   
   Might try to get both in a picture at a later time.   
      
   I'm inclined to think the mushroom is G. luteus.  The flesh is a vivid   
   yellow.  The cap often bruises to a rust-orange with age, and often   
   appears orange due to spores.  But, the yellow flesh is distinctive and   
   unmistakable, and quite bitter.  This *is* a psychoactive species.  See:
