Hello all

Here is one from Longshaw (20th September 2008) which unfortunately didn't go home for further examination

Any comments much appreciated

Cudoniella acicularis? perhaps? though they look too big... or cud. clavus

I was at longshaw on saturday but didn't find anything as interesting as this!

Hi Vix and thanks

I had considered C. clavus but the jizz didn't quite fit. I have found this on smaller branches of beech and other broad leaved trees.

The pile of logs behind the estate is well worth a look at the moment and what looks like the first signs of St Georges mushroom down from the waxcap track as you walk towards the wooden pole car park.

Ah well at least I am getting closer in my ID's - that's encouraging!
Just out of interest what was it on?

I will take a look next time I am there - preferably without a small child in tow
