Bracket

[Arbdog]

Can somebody positively ID this for me?

 

On the base of an Ash

 

Thanks

Ganoderma sp for the first one.

 

It may be G. resinaceum, but I'm not sure.

 

The brown spore that covers everything is the give away

 

 

To help with Identification, get in the habit of taking a wedge of the flesh and an image of the pores for us, as it helps a lot.

 

Second ones look like Corinus sp, possibly C. atramentarius

I try where I can,

 

 

not sure on the brown furry bracket at the base of the Ash.

 

Was it attached?

 

If so then the culprit could be Perenniporia fraxinea

 

If not attached its possible it might be Inonotus hispidus

 

There are reports of Inonotus dryadeus on ash, but this fairly rare.

 

Were there any gutation droplets on this bracket?

[Arbdog]

Most of the canopies had a inonotus bracket visible higher up the main stem but that ash had formation over the surface roots and tighter to the base was this.

[David Humphries]

I would think the one above is Pereniporia
