Pretty well dessicated, but I would think these are Polyporus squamosus - the dryads saddle

Fine shots Jules, great morphology in the developing one.

 

Tree dead/dying?

I don't know the history except that the tree was left as a monolith a couple or few years ago. No bark whatsoever so I guess that's a 'dead'.

 

I would love to get back soon and see how the new FB has developed, but I'm rarely in te neighbourhood.

A little bit 'o Fuligo...

Alongside a moss on a barely upright decayed dead alder stem.

Combined ID+ management Assistance with significance of this one would be great. I think it may be Innonotus dryadeus on a Beech tree. The tree was showing signs of dieback. Another tree surgeon performed 2m reduction and 10% thin two years ago. Reasonably vigorous response to the prunning considering it was a wee bit hard. However there is a section of necrotic bark surrounding a branch pruning wound with allot of fibre buckling on the opposite side.

 

The customer has concerns as the previous tree surgeon did a good job of relaying that it was disease but didn't got too much into a long term plan. I. E retention/future work or any would even be required.

 

The tree is in a very exposed part of town by the coast.

 

I'm thinking I will thin it out again and try to correct any strange re-growth from the previous reduction.

 

Thoughts welcome.

 

Cheers.
