Tis the season to see Fungi, fa la la la la....

[David Humphries]

Actually I am particularly interested to know what the last one is- no better pics as it is about 25' up an ash tree and i was on a bike ride.

 

 

 

The last one is Inonotus hispidus Tom

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

my less than 100% guess

 

beech with G. ;ipsiense/australe former more likely.

polyporus tuberaster, would like a pore shot

P tuberaster again

P squamosus

and finaly as david said Hispidus

Dammit Hama:biggrin:- after David's direction to the fungi Guide i was just about to come up with the ident for 1 and 3....2 was still foxing me though..

[Fungus]

Polyporus tuberaster, would like a pore shot ... P tuberaster again ... P squamosus

 

Although I also would like to see a pore shot of both specimen, I think it's three times P. tuberaster.

interesting what makes you say the last is also P tuberaster?

[tommer9]

These are within 100 yds of the beech with a hole carved out of it Hama, on my other thread.

The surface of the cap lacks the concentric rings of fibrillose (dark) brown scales, which are characteristic for P. squamosus.

P. squamosus with concentric rings of fibrillose (pale) brown scales, which seems to lack the characteristic blackish brown "foot".
