Identified as C. applanatus over other sp of cryptic crepidotus via spore microscopy - spores are small, round and minutely spiky (as described in Arora). C. autochthonus was a visually similar match, but ruled out because a) no microscope descriptions could be found and b) is only mentioned in european literature / identification guides. Compare Hesler and Smiths ‘North American Species of Crepidotus’ to european online guides - https://species.nbnatlas.org/species/NHMSYS0001479642 and http://www.basidiochecklist.info/DisplayResults.asp?intGBNum=3742
