Hoof Fungus |
Fungi Basidiomycetes (Spore dropping fungi) Polyporales |
| Fomes fomentarius | |
| Family: Polyporaceae | |
| Fyne Court, Somerset Eleanor Wasley thinks it is: Yes it is Fomes fomentarius. "We always call it 'horses hoofs' for obvious reasons. It is a perennial and grows a bit more each year so older specimens can be quite big. It is very characteristic of dead birch." However, Malcolm Storey isn't so sure - possibly Ganoderma spp. |
