Agaricus deplanatus

Agaricus deplanatus (Link ex Fr.) Murrill (1905) comes from Murrill's paper on North American polypores, where he used Agaricus for gilled bracket fungi of the Lenzites and Daedalea group. It is therefore probably a wood-decay bracket, not a mushroom. The one GBIF record is from Costa Rica.
