Sneeze Dark Blood Normal

Perenniporia fraxinea - Eschenbaumschwamm


No. 80 - a find from the Rhine-Main area
Rare and heat-loving species level, only on deciduous wood - mainly on ash and black locust.
The ash tree sponge is a weakness parasite that infested trees brings over the years slowly but surely dying.
Until about 45 years, he was in Germany not yet been demonstrated for the first time in November 1964 he was in the city of Neuss on the Rhine from G. Müller collected in a black locust (Müller & Jahn 1966).
The developing fungus usually forms at the stem base misshapen, bulbous from fruiting bodies, which are first dyed bright yellow. For these then form a short, flat, about 10 - 30 cm wide, console-like fruiting bodies, which can tile on the rack; The Hutoberfläche consists of a thin, dull, dirty-brown crust; remain the edges protruding
total. do these hats pretty unremarkable, almost shabby, what to keep with increasing age and they could be strengthened for everything, most likely for old Reishi, scaling or root-fire sponges. In some specimens, it remains the fertile hats are formed only in bulbous growths without. The Trama is hard and hellkorkbraun. The pores and tubes change color from whitish to wood color, then dirty gray-brown and are often layered (perennial). The
Hyphensystem is Dimiter with (almost) missing buckles. The freshly somewhat thick-walled, rounded to broadly elliptical spores with oil drops measure about 6-8 μ in length and are dextrinoid.
a reliable determination is difficult without microscopic examination. Here I would like to note with regard to the identification literature yet that the way in the non-leaf fungi band is described by Jülich 2x, once as Weißfäuleart P. fraxinea and a second time in as Fomitopsis Braunfäulegattung F. cytisina, the latter has failed. The ash tree sponge causes a white rot.
A detailed study on this and the confusion of nomenclature can be found in the APN 6.1 from 1988 (G. Krieglsteiner).
The species is now widespread in Germany. Almost all references are areas where warmer regions represent river valleys, roadsides and parks in cities typical locations. there are frequent incidence in the Saarland and the Rhine. Nevertheless, the species remains rare and is rarely recognized. In the Rhine-Main area, I found her first time 30 years ago on black locust. More than 3 or 4 findings are it does not become today, with most references have become extinct again.
Illustrated FK, in August 2010 at the NSG Mönchbruch photographed south of Frankfurt, where the species has been growing at the base of a mature Ash (Fraxinus).
