    Look to be one of the Ramaria sp .

    Do show? .

    Laetiporus has pores on the underside, this I'd imagine has gills. Looks to be a Pluerotus .
  4. David Humphries
    That be Podoscypha multizonata - the many zoned rosette .

    In my experience I tend to find it fruiting for the most part in old cavitated prunning wounds, branch/union tear outs and detached fallen lumps of branches. To me this suggests that it's perhaps more a secondary parasite rather than primary Others may have different experiences/opinions. Inonotus cuticularis - Clustered Bracket - David Humphries’s Fungi Directory - Arbtalk.co.uk | Discussion Forum for Arborists Can you post your images please, I've not seen it on turkey oak before. .

    Looks like geotropism, but unless the tree fell over then was put back up again then I think you're right. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/fungi-pictures/14352-geotropism.html .

    What's the Oak? Live or laurel perhaps? Shame about the big girdler Looks a bit beyond removing, ya think? .

    Do you mean fungi on the tree it's self or in the soil like the mycorrhizas? Either way I would think the answer is no. Here's some normal sized fruiting mycorrhizal Laccaria's on a Korean hornbeam (not my image) Mycorrhiza fungi and bonsai Swindon & District Bonsai I wouldn't of thought there would be enough energy for the saprophytes or parasites to be gained from devouring a bonsai to produce fruit bodies on the host. .

    not really my bag to give advice on the safety of fung, but if it is Black Bulgar, Roger Phillips has it listed as unedible I wouldn't let the kids chew on them .
  13. David Humphries
    Look like Bulgaria inquinans - the Black Bulgar .
  14. David Humphries
    Pholiota squarrosa I do believe .
  15. David Humphries
    Air spading, mulching, decay detection, bracing, propping, inspection, surveys .

    a striking explosion of Pholiota aurivella - the golden scalycap. .

    Gymnopilus junonius - the spectacular rustgill, here on Hawthorn .

    Hello Chris, I had the pleasure of meeting your father a couple of times. We shared a few pints in North London one evening having a good banter about all things ecology. Also shared a good walk around Moccas park on an ATF site visit. A fine gent and conversationalist and certainly an inspiration. I'm very sorry to hear of his passing. A sad loss indeed. My thoughts with you and all his family and friends who I'm sure miss him greatly. Rest in peace Alan .

    Sorry, but I couldn't possibly comment without seeing it in the flesh. .

    Most interesting .

    Stump puffball - Lycoperdon pyroforme .

    Image is a little out of focus to be sure but I would think your description would indicate it to be one of the Clavulina sp .
  24. David Humphries
    Images are a bit small. Is the first one Amanita pantherina ? .
  25. David Humphries
    some stuff from work today, the season is building to a crescendo............... .
