perenniporia fraxinea

[stevelucocq]

Is this perenniporia fraxinea? I am always a little doubtfull as it has some traits of Ridiporous.

 

Interesting to see how the fruiting body has fill the back area of the buttress almost like tarmac.

 

Needless to say that this dead Ash tree is being removed very quickly.

 

Any comments welcome, sorry if this has been covered numerous times!

Hello Steve,

 

I think this is Perenniporia & not Rigidoporus ulmarius.

 

Partly because of host, black surface, & lack of white flesh & complete defined cinamon pore layer.

 

Though tbh, as I & others have found out to the developement of our skill in fungi Id, it's best to go the distance with these things & check spore/use microscope.

And this time I can second that with being 90 % sure without using a microscope .

Looks like the tree was recently , heavily reduced...? Because of the fungus I wonder?
