I saw this mushroom growing in the grass on a small lawn of a hotel in Arkansas next to the parking lot. I believe it is a type of Ganoderma or Reishi mushroom. I have two other species of Ganoderma on this blog (Fungus Schmungus #2 and #6). I was not able to identify the species with certainty. There are two photos of this same mushroom on the internet posted on Reddit with one from Nebraska and one from Ohio. These posts also question the species.

Below is a photo of the mushroom which was the size of a small plate and a close-up of its skin.
