Strange ones....! Forest floor birch, Oak woodland

[ohgreatstew]

OK, 3 Different new specimens for me here, I think I may have a clue for one of them, otherwise I am stummped.....

This was found in amounsgt mostly hornbeam and birch, I think all four pictures here are of the same fungus in various stages, but I can't find it anywhere.....


This one was found on grass at the edge of the forest, really quite firm and sturdy, sorry not much more information..


This was in amoungst birch and Oak on leaf litter..... I am thinking maybe Aleuria aurantia


Last one here, I think I have got this one as Clavulina coralloides...


Thanks Stewart....

Hi Stew,

The first are all Boletes that have been attacked by a Hypomyces mould.

The second, may just be a cracking find, Podoscypha multizonata.

I'd say probably correct on third and not a clue about the coral; another weak spot I should address

Well all these were new to me, and dead chuffed if your right on the podoscpha multizonata, not that I doubt you of course

I would agree with Podoscypha.

Thanks Mal, just what I wanted to hear.... am I close on the coral???

Do you want any of these for the Gallery Nick?

[NickCantle]

It's not up to me It's just nice having a wide array of species in the Gallery as not only does it fill the website with good visual reference material, it builds a solid bank of species that might not have been seen by anyone. I know I certainly enjoy looking through the Gallery at things I've never seen, which is why I asked for the Panther...well, just turns out that I had a nice find on Saturday. Pics to come

Your 3rd species is Otidea onotica, commonly known as Hare's Ear.
