Dear Muthu, It looks like *Panellus stipticus*. In this cap is yellowish breaking up into small scales, kidney or funnel shaped. Gills crowded, thin straight. Stipe short and lateral. This sp. is inedible, possibly poisonous. This grows on dead branches or stumps of broadleaf trees. Can you please check about the luminosity of this mushroom at night? With Regards,
