Recommended Posts

looked at this today on a beech.

 

Found it at the base of the tree in the buttress , think its a root rotter. Its woody and perinnieal , fan shaped and hard,black all over , no pores visable on the underside. i thought it was Ustulina deusta but that hasnt got any long pores this one has.

 

Ive gone through some books and i think its P. igniarius.Any ideas guys and gals.

 

sorry about the un david baily photos.

Looks like ganoderma to me i just went and looked at the old fruiting bodies on my old beech and picture looks very similar:001_smile:

 

can you narrow it down to species do you think.

 

Checked out your old thread bundle, the cracking is in common with P.igniarius.

i just checked a book and it says P.igniarius is a trunk rotter yes..mmmm?

 

may be a ganoderma then david. The only thig is that ganoderma that im looking at in books has white pore undersides , this one is all black underneath.
