The image shows a close-up of several layers of mushroom caps growing on top of a fallen tree trunk, which is lying horizontally on the ground. The mushrooms have an orange-brownish hue with white edges and are growing in overlapping layers, similar to coral reefs or shelves.

Trametopsis cervina can be found growing on logs throughout most of North America, from Canada to Mexico. It grows on hardwoods such as oak, maple, hickory, poplar, willow, alder, sycamore, and cottonwood. They are usually found growing in clusters on the underside of a log or stump.

The mushroom caps have soft, velvety surfaces that can be easily bruised if touched with a stick or finger. The texture is so delicate and fragile that they cannot support their own weight, causing them to grow flat against whatever surface they are attached to. – AI vision

🇪🇸 Descripción en español / Spanish Description

Los hongos Trametopsis cervina en un tronco en Hensel Park. College Station, Texas, septiembre de 2020. La imagen muestra un primer plano de varias capas de sombreros de hongo creciendo encima de un tronco de árbol caído, que yace horizontalmente en el suelo. Los hongos tienen un matiz naranja parduzco con bordes blancos y están creciendo en capas superpuestas, similares a arrecifes o estantes de coral. Trametopsis cervina se puede encontrar creciendo en troncos por toda América del Norte, desde Canadá hasta México. Crea hongos en maderas duras como roble, arce, higuera, sauce, fresno, sauco, sicomoro y algodón. Suelen crecer en grupos en la parte inferior de un tronco o trompa. Los sombreros del hongo tienen superficies suaves y velvety que pueden ser fácilmente magulladas si se tocan con una vara u ñapo. La textura es tan delicada y frágil que no puede soportar su propio peso, por lo que crecen planos contra cualquier superficie a la que están unidos. – Spanish translation
