For Tony Hamadryad

[Fungus]

Yesterday, I returned from a three day's field trip to the beech woodlands and mixed forests of the northern parts (Hulshorst, Leuvenum) of the Veluwe.

Lots of Pycnoporus cinnabarinus about and 5 annual brackets of the extremely rare Aurantioporus croceus, which is a first find for The Netherlands and the Flemish part of Belgium.

The two FB's on the saw cut of the felled birch were accompagnied by the transitional phase from plasmodium to aethalium of the myxomycete Fuligo septica var. candida.

Any shots of the pores/flesh ?

 

1. Pores of A. croceus, which have turned from bright orange-yellow to whitish by the ripening spores. The flesh is saphron yellow.

2. Pores of P. cinnabarinus. The flesh has the same colour and the mycelium colours the white rotted wood vermillion red.
