Wood dust, or frass, from insects feeding on decayed wood above. Getting caught in cobwebs.

Or some serious localized spores deposits from unseen fungi!

sloth, your first impression was correct, dont take any notice of him!

[sloth]

In this case, and on ash (it ash, right?), in my experience it is always associated with decayed wood. Other times, this much dry, dusty frass, does come from dry decaying wood. However, it COULD come from feeding on living wood; ALB for example...

 

As a side note, I think your presence is needed regarding dryadeus on uktc! Also, did you get my email?
