Found in a pool of standing water on a well-rotted piece of bark under cottonwood trees.
Tiny orange cups .5 cm and smaller. Top surface scarlet. Margins lined with dark hairs. Outside of cup fuzzy with shorter hairs, of which some are paler (brown to golden--maybe older). No stem.
What I assumed to be spores were elliptical (see photos). See also paraphyses (which are a little wider at the tip) holding spores. See also hairs, which look brownish or golden in photos.

Fomitopsis cajanderiObservador
emwheeelerDescrição
This is a very wood-like looking fungus with a bark textured top. It extends its base outwards like a shelf fungus and curves downward in the shape of a clamshell. These were found on a cut down tree, most likely feeding off of it as it decays.
