Bracket fungi include the tough, woody, shelf-like growths on the trunks of dead trees. Some species are serious parasites of living trees. The upper side often shows concentric striations that represent successive years of growth. Ages of 50-70 years have been recorded for some species. The lower surface is composed of numerous minute pores through which astronomical numbers of spores are released.
Bracket fungi feed on wood, either as living trees or dead logs, and the brackets are their fruiting bodies. These form shelf-like structures singly or in groups and normally stick out from the trunk or branches though some develop from infected roots and appear at ground level. They can vary in size from a few centimetres to the giant polypore (Meripilus giganteus), which can reach 1m across. There are scores of different species including the gruesome beefsteak fungus that looks like raw meat and produces red juice when cut, and the more attractive chicken of the woods, which is bright yellow and a gourmet delicacy.
Taken on 09 Jul 2017 in Hamsterley Forest near Bishop Auckland, Co. Durham.
Taken handheld at 1/15 of a second. Which shows either that I have a steady hand, or that the optical image stabilisation in the camera is very good.
I made a mockup of both brackets in cardboard to figure out the size and estimate where holes needed to be drilled.
Bracket fungus tentatively identified as Polystichus versicolor. Maine, 28th November 2008, mixed coastal forest. I would welcome confirmation or correction.
Found on a tree around 'The Meres' in Diss, Suffolk. I was drawn to the colours and the and all the webs contained within the hollow of the tree.
