I believe Gary said this was Ischnoderma benzoinum.
Thanks Adam. Gary did say it was an uncommon species and only found in a few places in West PA. Reading a discussion about an observation on Mushroom observer it looks like it is a good candidate for sequencing. Next time!
Actually the occurrence map shows that up to now it is only found on the east coast in Cook Forest!
