[Geert Brakel]

Hi guys I couldnt get a bit of help with this ident could I, I found both on a Robinia and a Oak both close by each other I think they are Armillaria tabescens but not too sure.

[Fungus]

1. First is on a London Plane (a big one!), could it be a species of Ganoderma?

2. 2nd photo is on a Scots Pine (old Phaeolus perhaps?)

 

Al,

1. As has been suggested by others, it could either be R. ulmarius or P. fraxinea. If it was found on the continent, it would be the last one.

2. Could also be Phellinus pini (microscope).

Armillaria species have white spores, this is the saprotrophic Coprinus micaceus s.l. with blackish spores, that prefers dead wood at trunk's bases that dogs have urinated upon.
