Hi Dave. Sorry I have not replied to your post number 2131 of 10 Sept but went away that day and came back yesterday. The first one in my post 2123 was on an ash tree.

Thanks Hazel.

Likely then to to be Alder Bracket.

Hi Claire.

A. Common Earthball
B. Russula type, not identifiable from just photos i'm afraid but is most likely to be Russula ochraleuca
C. Common Earthball
D. Amanita type, possibly one of three species but it's too early to tell.
E. Chicken Of The Woods
F. Russula typa
G. Piptoporus betulinus - Birch Polypore

Hi Pam.

It's not an oyster mushroom i'm afraid, Pam, the underside of your specimens show pores/tubes and not gills. It's probably at to early a stage to id fully but it is certainly a bracket fungi of some kind.

That's the spirit!

Oyster fungus always have gills undeneath and gill photos of all fungi can really help when determining an id.

I still can't get any spores from my unidentified fungi so I tried using the keys with all the various possible spore colours to see where that took me. Ended up with possibly Gymnopilus penetrans.

60 mm diameter but some where a little larger; about the same in height. Stalk had distinctly yellowish flesh. Slight musty earthy smell. Growing on soil, or buried wood, in a damp woodland site.

Any thoughts?

Was it growing on wood or very close by to wood, Geoff?

Yes Dave, at or very close to the base of small trees and with old branches etc lying around. Mostly birch, hazel, etc with a few oak and beech nearby. Typical broadleaf wet woodland natural mixture.
