I spotted these fungi clustered on a living tree trunk.

These were reddish brown at the slightly dipped apex, fading to light orange-yellow then to yellow-buff at the edge.

The caps were flat with down-turned edges and the stems buff to dark brown.

The gills were buff and had lamellula (partial gills).
