I hadn't given a huge amount of thought to species other than it was a Ganoderma. I was half hungover from the wedding party the night before and wanted the shots before I left.

 

Now that I am thinking about it. resinaceum probably would have sprung to mind. Although I thought that resi was an annual bracket? Or is that lucidum? Mainly because of the previous seasons fruiting still being on the stem.

Come on Rainford, you can do better than this:biggrin:

 

brackets, even annual ones may persist on or near the tree for at least till the following years fruiting.

 

Resinaceum and Lucidum are both annual Ganodermas

I said I'm a little rusty. I've not had much chance to keep myself in tune!

 

I understand that. I didn't expect it to be as well preserved as it was on the side.

 

I had found some old Fistulina brackets. They were next to the first tree in the set of pics. It would explain the different appearance of the stem. Although it seem that the features we were looking at on oaks last year were normally pushed up the stem but the burrs on that one are around the base even in the presence of competition from I. dryadeus.

Perhaps worth adding G carnosum (valesiacum) to the list of annual fruiting Ganodermas, particularly as it can be relatively easily confused with both resi and lucidum

No idea, but beautiful photo

Some australe growing on a recently coppiced Crack Willow (Failure down to Australe). I would have got pics of the bigger bracket but it has Jasper and Harry nests in the stump.

Let me be the first to show my ignorance. 'Jasper and Harry'?
