Developing fruit bodies

[David Humphries]

Not a huge change between these shots, as they're only a few days apart.

 

But quite a difference in colour/texture with under the influence of a quick shower........

 

G. resinaceum, here on Hornbeam

On an Oak hosting Fomes.

 

Still relatively unsure as to these being lucidums or resinaceum.

 

Leaning toward the latter now.

 

really do need to start on the journey toward spore Id.

Here's the over lapping development of first Colybia & then Fistulina, here on Oak.

heres a nice developing coprinus picaceus, and in its latter stages.

 

Dean lofthouse take note!

Been watching this "stump" for a little while.

 

I know, i know........sad git, I hear ya

 

Got some very perculier looks from a quivering net curtain, when I attacked it with a dirty great knife

 

Thought it was Ganoderma resinaceum at first, now sure that it is Perenniporia fraxinea

 

Will be more careful with my 'visual' Id around these two in the future, certainly whilst they're at initial developement stage.

Fomes fomentarius on Oak.

 

Took a wedge out of this bracket back in '09 to help me with Id.

 

Here it is fully occluded from a couple of weeks back.

[David Humphries]

Have you got a shot of the Perenni at the Whip, when you took the first wedge?
