Excellent image and presentation of Shaggy manes' characteristics..rapidly deliquescing—or self-digesting—into a black, inky, spore-filled liquid within hours of maturity. Shaggy manes are choice edibles, but they must be cooked or processed quickly (ideally within 1–2 hours of harvest) before they dissolve. The resulting black liquid is safe to use as a culinary ingredient, such as in pasta dough or sauces.

This is the difference between true gills and false gills. On the left of the toxic Jack O'Lantern mushroom and on the right is a Chanterelle.. the Jack O'Lantern has sharp defined true gills while the chanterelle with this fall skills are actually more folds and ridges that fork. This tends to confuse a lot of people which could cause a very uncomfortable outcome

This isn't the best picture and I wish I would have taken more but this is a Beefsteak Fungus (Fistulina hepatica)When cut from the source, the mushroom bleeds a pinkish liquid and when cut apart, the beefsteak mushroom resembles a cut of meat, complete with veined, marbled, deep red flesh inside. Edible

Scaly Pholiota (Pholiota squarrosa).Both the cap and the stem are covered in small, pointed scales that are pointed downward and backward. The crowded gills are yellowish, then later rust-brown. Considered non edible.

So this a Berkeley Polypore... I use this in my seasoning..it has a wonderful taste but tends to be a little tough for regular cooking unless found in the younger primordial stages. All of the white around it is multiple spore releases. And that is how fungi reproduce. Billions if not trillions of spores and as you can see the Berkeley Polypore has white spores.
