Laetiporus sulphureus
Laetiporus sulphureus ("chicken of the woods") is a bright yellow-orange, shelf-forming polypore that grows in clusters on living or dead hardwoods and causes brown rot by primarily degrading cellulose. Fruiting bodies appear from late spring to autumn. When young it is considered edible, but intolerances occur and specimens from toxic host trees should be avoided.
