No, I let it stay. I was unable to identify the tree, which was certainly an exotic species in my country (and even on the European continent).
There are certain host trees for this mushroom that have an influence on its toxicity (such as yew and some conifers), and its consumption in these cases is completely discouraged (it can cause various intestinal problems or even allergic situations in some people.)
Hence, although this mushroom is edible, it is always important to correctly identify the host tree to avoid health complications!

Cheers!
