Does anyone have any ideas what the brown bracket fungus is in the photo? I know that the yellow one is chicken of the woods but have no idea about the other one   |

They're old basidiomes of Daedaleopsis confragosa. Also, the yellow one can't be Laetiporus sulphureus as your image seems to show it with gills. |

Have you ruled out Pleurotus KT? (Edit for the gilled one - not the brown bracket).
The lower gilled one in the top photo has that Oystery sort of look about it to me.
Regards
Mike. |

You'll never know unless you revisit and collect KT. |

I would even disagree with the darker one and go for Fistulina hepatica with Pleurotus for the other

I did wonder Mal, but I didn't suggest it because I've seen Daedaleopsis confragosa (too) many times looking very thin and layered like those shown in KT's photograph. I remember F. hepatica being quite a chunky bracket that is quite wide. KT's specimens are all pretty much the same size, which I've never seen with F. hepatica- which seem more 'erratic' in the way it grows. |

I based my "suggestion" on the fact that I couldn't see the pores and Daedalopsis often had quite distinctive ones. The second photo does look less like Fistulina though
