On a fallen pine branch in the Sam Houston National Forest near Montgomery, Texas, I discovered soft white brackets of Postia(?) polypore mushrooms, which were producing spores on May 5, 2023. The delicate, white brackets were covered in small pores that released spores into the air, allowing the fungus to disperse its reproductive material and continue its life cycle. – generated by AI
