Hypsizygus ulmarius

Fungi

Hypsizygus ulmarius, also known as the elm oyster mushroom and less commonly as the elm leech, is a species of fungus. It has often been confused with oyster mushrooms of the genus Pleurotus, but can be distinguished because its gills are either not decurrent or only shallowly decurrent.
