2nd one fomes fomentarius perhaps?

 

I'd stick with the Ganoderma. Doesn't look like Fomes fomentarius to me.

 

Found these at the base of some ash trees in our local park. Is it Pholiata squarrosa:confused1:

 

Looks like you have the same problem I had a couple of messages earlier (alltough this might be Pholiota squarrosa, certainly the third picture)As Monkeyd says: lots of Pholiota species out there (btw. thanks Monkeyd, I can live with 'Pholiota something' )

Inonotus obliquus?

 

Hi Dan,

 

interesting finds

 

Got me thinking towards Inonotus cuticularis for the second one.

I've read that I. obliquus is more often to be found on Birch as opposed to Beech, which is a usual host for cuti.

 

First one has a completely different margin to the second one.

So, suggests to me it's something else intirely.

 

Are these both on the same Beech?

 

 

cheers

David
