behold... the epic fungi thread!

[chris cnc]

some recent finds... including Polyporus squamosus, some Trametes and some Ganoderma.... probably not in that order!

[chris cnc]

And im not sure what this one is...

 

there were a couple of loose pieces of this fungi scattered around the area, i originally thought it was polystyrene or something until i found it growing on a log...

 

Any ideas?

[chris cnc]

Laeteporus sulphureus, brown heartwood rotter found on oak and other broadleaved trees...

 

also known as chicken of the woods or sulphur polypore

 

First time finding this!

that last image of laeti, well composed lit and good colour saturation, gets my ultra critical thumbs up!

[chris cnc]

cheers, i saw it in the distance and spend a few minutes trying to decide whether or not it was a crisp packet/ takeaway carton or something, then eventually decided to walk up and investigate. glad i did!

 

(there is a lot of rubbish in this wood, such a shame)

Looks like old desicated Laetiporus to me. Which goes chalky white.

 

What species is it on?
