Laetiporus conifericola

Laetiporus conifericola is a fungus that looks very similar to the chicken of the woods except that it grows on conifers, particularly fir, spruce, and hemlock.

Description
This fungus is bright orange with yellowish to paler rings, with its outermost rings being the palest. They contain translucent colored spores. L. conifericola is often times mistaken for Laetiporus sulphureus.

Edibility
Due to the fact that it grows on hemlock trees, it is best that these mushrooms are avoided as far as edibility goes since hemlock contains toxins. If a forager is certain the tree they find this fungus on isn't a hemlock, it is best to eat them young, though cooking is recommended as there still may be toxins in it.
