Chinese Fan Mushroom

Schizophyllum commune, this type of mushroom I chose for contribution to today's #FungiFriday, hosted by @ewkaw. This mushroom thrives in clusters on dead tree trunks and has the distinctive trait of splitting its gills.

The existence of this mushroom almost escaped my sight because it was next to a cotton tree that was bearing fruit. Yes! At first glance, it looks like cotton plus a pile of used white nets belonging to local farmers.

This is part of one of the Wikipedia sources mentioned above: the characteristics of this mushroom "resembles undulating waves of tightly packed corals or loose Chinese fan", and "this mushroom is found throughout the world", including in our area in Lhokseumawe, Indonesia.

Please criticize if I incorrectly included the reference to the type of mushroom mentioned above. Photographed by @ichsannanda with Canon EOS 700D camera+17-50mm Lens, edited in Adobe Photoshop.
