These look to have pores underneath this together with some cap features suggest to me Polyporus arcularius.

The damage on the left-hand cap is very helpful - since it lets you see through to the upper parts of some of the pores. Otherwise, in cases like this, a photo of the underside would be very useful or (if such a photo is impossible) a comment about what you on the underside would help. A mirror placed below gives an easy way of seeing what's there. if you don't have a mirror you'll find that stems or caps of may species can be gently bent a little to help you get a better look.
