Field Notes

Description:

Looking like a split crystal geode, this resupinate fungus was growing in patches, the whole spread about 70 mm long. Margins were white and irregular and the pinkish-purple centres were nodular and jelly-like. Some beads of moisture seen.

Habitat:

Spotted growing low on the bark of a damp tree trunk. Not sure of the species but tree might have been dying.

Notes:

? Phlebia species.

Looking for an ID.
