No, the info comes from my note book.

1. Correct. 2. Not to those on other trees in general, but to some of the generalistic bark decomposing fungi of other coniferous tree species.

Or no compartmentalisation at all, but demarcation lines of two or more mycelia instead. Were their any FB's of any fungi present ? -
Hypholoma fasciculare.
-
In the Netherlands, on beech we sometimes see a colonization of the exposed sapwood in the strike wound by Inonotus cuticularis.

Matt, Flammulina velutipes is a winter species with trehalose (anti-freeze) in its FB's to withstand frost. And frost doesn't change the colour of the spores.

As I said before, Lactarius subdulcis is associated with Fagus. If present, did you check the colour and the taste of the milk ? Besides, judged by the photo and without further information, it could just as well be a Clitocybe or Lepista species. -
Danavan, I'm not convinced this is a Coniophora species. It could just as well be one of a number of look-a-likes, that can only be identified 100 % certain with a microscope.
-
No, I don't, a close up would be welcome and is the tree not a coniferous species then ?
-
Matt, 1-6 : Hypholoma fasciculare = Flammulina velutipes (white spores) 11-13 : fungi/species growing on moss = lichen Peltigera canina

1/2. L. subdulcis is associated with beech. -
1. Could be if the tree recently died. And the mess on the stem is resin produced by coniferous trees as a reaction to the presence (high up) in the stem of mycelium or rhizomorphs of the necrotrophic parasitic Armillaria, that killed the tree. 2. Because of the absence of tubes and spores.
-
Saprotrophic Coniophora species cause a brown rot, starting off with a superficial outside in decomposition of bark and dead wood.
-
That's because the tree species are listed in alphabetical order. It's most common on beech and birch on the continent too.
-
Gareth, With rusty brown spores ? If so, Pholiota squarrosa, which is quite common on ash and often with these alarming results, because of total decomposition of major roots and/or the trunk's base.
-
I meant it decomposes dead wood with self produced organohalogens or polyaromatic hydrocarbons and the name Sulphur tuft (in Dutch Zwavelkop = sulphur head) comes from the colour of the cap and from the bitter taste.
-
Matt, 4-9 : Tubaria hiemalis (T. furfuracea s.l.) 10-12 : old Clitocybe nebularis ?
-
Matthew, See my album on Armillaria for insects feeding on the acid smelling secretion by a with rhizomorphs infected oak.
-
And you can add P. ferruginosus as a possible candidate too.
-
... or P. truncatus and it could also be Dichomitus campestris.
-
H. capnoides is restricted to (stumps of) dead coniferous wood.
-
Rob, Yes, in The Netherlands it is.
-
Ben, documentation of the typical wood decomposition strategy of M. giganteus in beech, warning for potential wind throw by panic fruiting.

, a winter species attacking trees while they are in their resting phase and can't defend themself.
