Habitat:Sometimes solitary but more often in over lapping clusters on dead woods and on living trees as well. Sometimes growing as rosettes from roots of the tree and buried woods.

Comments: There is another type of this fungus which has a white pore surface, and some authors recognize this as Laetiporus sulphureus var. semialbinus syn. Laetiporus cincinnatus but both are edible when well cooked. Laetiporus sulphureus has yellow pores in contrast to Laetiporus cincinnatus.
