  1. So one problem solved, another created. What to do with species of which only an anamorph is known without a teleomorph being documented ?
  2. Sean, I think this is a Clavicorona (= Artomyces) species growing on dead wood.
  3. Sloth, New foliage and flower buds are rich in proteins and vitamins. It's the same with singing birds nourishing themselves with pollen of willow and pine. And sparrows eat yellow crocus flowers and cows pilewort flowers for their spring dose of carotene.
  4. John, What's the black stuff breaking through or growing on the bark to the right of the crack in the second picture ? Dried out reminants of fungi, such as Chondrostereum purpureum or a Xylaria spp. ?
  5. David, Nice documentation . Do you know whether the brackets close to the cut were there before or appeared after the tree was felled ? Both ways, it seems like an example of panic fruiting with as much fb's as possible.
  6. 1. I. cuticularis = Daedaleopsis confragosa 2. pores like Trametes = Schizopora paradoxa
  7. Never seen P. aurivella so close to the base on a standing tree.
  8. John, Put some gills in water and try to locate a cluster of spores : white spores = Armillaria, brown spores is Pholiota species.
  9. Great documentation of the white rot with selective delignification of the Ganoderma.
  10. Tony, Can you give me the latin name of this beetle ?
  11. Is there any documentation of damage done by Rose-ringed Parakeets to other tree species and of them being a threat to other birds and especially bats because they take over their sleeping and nesting holes ?
  12. Entoloma has pinkish spores, this is a Psilocybe, maybe P. montana.
  13. David, Too young to say, could be a number of annual (?) bracket fungi. My best shot would be Abortiporus biennis.
  14. Matt, Yes, probably Peziza vesiculosa.
  15. Agreed, concerning the damage to the tree it makes no difference.
  16. Tony, Could that be because you never checked any possible Oxyporus microscopically ?
  17. Yes, because of the poor wood quality of poplars, it often is.
  18. No, it probably is Oxyporus populinus.
  19. Great find of a species I never had the luck of documenting it myself .
  20. Graham, Definitely not G. odoratum that should have a very strong smell of fennel. This probably is a still developing and partially resupinate Trametes with a velvet surface on top.
  21. Not just more than likely, but the only possible candidate on Prunus .
  22. Did you miss my "pagan" contribution to the christian debate then ?
