The resupinate sheet fungi with the wavy margin would be the saprobic one and the white fur?, without a macro view, might be some Hypomyces sp. - http://www.mushroomexpert.com/hypomyces.html or even a parasitic pin mold like Spinella sp. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinellus but we would need to see it very closely indeed. Here's my pin mold spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/11944172 and here's a Hypomyces http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/25577035 There are probably many more options for fungi on fungi parasitism.
Mark Ridgway,
Really! Wow...I am so thrilled...I thought it was pretty unusual looking ..never thought this was two species together...can a saphrophyte be a parasite..? Totally confused. I like spotting fungi (and eating mushrooms) but their Taxonomy defeats me..Thanks and looking forward to your reply.
This one is really interesting. A toothed shelf fungi on the timber (which really focuses ID options) and another white 'parasitic' mold type fungi which seems to be growing on the first one.
