Found this polyporos squamous on an ash coppice stop that has died due to ash dieback, not a clue on the weeuns beneath it though

Not 100% sure (as no gill shots) but the small ones may be one of the Coprinus species possibly C. congregatus.

 

 

Do you know if the dead ash regrowth shown in the last image had the tell tale lesions and drooping/wilting dead leaves?

Yes it diid, was coppiced in 2011, vigorous regen as you'd expect and first showed signs June 2014 and succumbed sometime in the last year. Lots of saplings leaves around here have wilted leaves and lesions now. It's about 10 miles south east of Ashwellthorpe wood and in coniferised adjacent to a plantation that was planted up in 2003 with Dutch imported stock, of which about 20% ash which is mostly dead. Many were showing advanced signs of dieback in 2013

Lurking amongst one of my timber stacks. Still trying to work out what it is, so don't tell me yet David

What fungi is this? And what would you suggest as course of action?

 

Thanks

Talking about Fungi do any of you guys ever come across Chaga..? Mostly found in very cold habitats and grow predominantly on birches.
