I'm of the mind that this offering is the Benzoin bracket - Ischnoderma benzoinum

Not quite sure of the host though

not a familiar one to me:blushing:

 

Cant find anything on Rogers Mushrooms which looks similar. Maybe a rarity?

Found this soft bracket growing on a cedar rustic picnic bench. It has been there for about 4 years and is holding up well. The legs are being replaced this year as they are just starting to rot at the base and the top weighs about 80kg.

 

Just bumped it to see if any other fellow fung nuts have a clue as to what this is? I had a look this morning on Rogers Mushrooms (both book and interent versions) and couldnt find anything. I even typed soft toothed brackets that host on pine and it came up with the usual suspects but not this one
