10:12 a.m.: 🍂Stereum hirsutum🍂 Stereum, the genus of this fungi, means tough, with crust fungi in this genus being difficult to tear when you want to take a sample to study. The epithet hirsutum means hairy, with upper surfaces of these tiered brackets distinctly hairy when fruiting bodies are young and fresh. They do become smoother with age.✨ #fungusamongus #mushrooms #mycophile #mycology #shelffungus #fungus #crustfungi #bracketfungi #shroomatnoon #explorehumbolt #fungi #mushroomlover #pnw #humboldt #norcal #upperleftus #upperleftusa #pnwcollective #pnwonderland #forest #forestfinds #northcoast #stereum #stereumhirsutum #falseturkeytail #fungiaffair #allthemushroomhashtags #hairycrustfungi #humboldtcounty #themoreyouknow
