Yellow stagshorn (Calocera viscosa)

Nice vibrant colour.

 

Had you considered any of the other Calocera species.

 

C. viscosa usually resembles more pronounced 'stagshorns' with a notable branching form at the tips.

 

just wondered if this is worth considering C. cornea ?

 

or perhaps you're bang on and its just immature forming fruit bodies of C. viscosa

Thanks David,

 

It's the first time I've come across/noticed it. I may have got carried away with googling "Yellow finger fungi". It does look alot more like Calocera cornea. I'll try and have a look back at it and see what it does.

Stuck between Ganoderma sp. or Heterobasidion Annosum.. or am I way off?

Without seeing a wedge/slice of the flesh and tubes I'd only guess at it being Ganoderma resinaceum.

Thanks David, I'm intending on getting both clearer pictures and a segment the next time I'm there

The young ones on the beech are likely to be Pleurotus ostreatus - Oyster fungus

 

The single desiccated one may be an old oyster.

 

The tiers of brackets are hard to be sure from that image.

 

Helps to be able to see underneath the caps

Beech deadwood looks like it could be Trametes versicolor, though I echo what David said.

 

The one on oak could also be a Pluteus sp, potentially?
