While I'm sure that you are being wise Adam it may be that there is just a Chinese trawl for any mycological info.

If you had access to a microscope, you could do a gill squash (if the gills are developed enough) or look for a spore deposit on older specimens. Spore colour would...

Maybe Abortiporus biennis?
