Developing

[Bart]

Still following this developing fungi on Q, cerris (Turkey Oak)

and still unsure to its id, previous suggestion were Inonotus dryadeus and heterobasidion annosum. Defiantly not dryadeus as its perennial, not so sure about heterobasidion annosum, some type of Phellinus maybe

The photos and vid are from 15/05/09 to 25/08/10

Looks like a bit of discarded loo roll after a few showers

No idea really Bart, looks like it's starting to shelf in the last shot.

 

Keep an eye on it ( which I'm sure you will) and try and get a vertical slice through it, to see if we can get a tube layer.

 

Also shots of any pores when/if they develope might be useful.

What an interesting little post!

 

The hetero guess aint a bad one I reckon, with those shelves forming, I will keep an eye on this one with great interest, thanks for posting.

Pic’s from 3/9/10

Had another look and took a slice out of the forming lip/shelf. It had a tough corky texture with quite a srtrong mushroomy smell, the outer white layer bruised browny yellow.

Bart,

I would not be surprised if this also was Aurantioporus fissilis, just like the perennial fungus Tony recently showed.

Gerrit, I would of expected the flesh & tubes to be whiter with the greasy bracket ?

 

 

more like this ?

Thanks Gerrit

 

Done a quick search for Aurantioporus fissilis decay strategies, only thing i could find was that it's a heartwood decay fungus. ill have a look in my books tomorrow and do a more detailed search to see if i can find some more info.

David,

"Brackets at first whitish, then yellowish to pinkish gray, eventually gray brown. Tubes in the same colours. Flesh white, in old specimen gray brown. Tough when dry." (Gerhardt, 2006).
