I've never actually seen one, but I remembered seeing web page descriptions. Leucocoprinus birnbaumii. Mushroomexpert has a good description and Tom Volk has it as the Feb. 2002 fungus of the month calling it the "yellow houseplant mushroom".

Looks like what some call bears head tooth, or comb tooth. See if you can find a good match in your guide book. (#548 & 549 in the National Audubon book) I'm not certain if anyone posted a picture of bears head tooth on this forum, but probably they have. Here we find them a old beech trees. We enjoy them sauteed in butter with a little garlic salt. Reminds me of crab. I only like to use the nice white parts though. The brown dried parts can be a little sour tasting to me.

They do look like bears tooth (that's what I call them anyway) aka Hericium americanum. I just posted a photo of some I found on one of the other threads, don't remember which one, but those are tasty.
