Would you drink from a bottle if you didn't understand the label? The same rules apply here: if you don't know 100% what it is, you can't eat it.

Coriolus hirsutus?

Turkey tail?

According Wikipedia:
[Daldinia concentrica] is a useful form of tinder for fire-lighting. The brown variety is
usually too heavy and dense to be much good; the black variety is
lighter and better. It does need to be completely dry, whereupon it will
easily take a spark from a firesteel. It burns slowly, much like a
charcoal briquette, with a particularly pungent smoke. Once lit it is
quite difficult to extinguish, but fragments can be broken off and
transferred to a tinder ball to create an open flame.
