Place: Lower Trenta valley, between villages Soa and Trenta, right bank of river Soa, between Trenta 2b cottage and abandoned farmhouse Strgulc, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC Comments: In Germany Phellodon niger has already disappeared from many historically known locations in and around industrial regions (Ref.:2.). The causes are acid precipitations, other airborne toxins and eutrophication of forest ground. The species is worldwide distributed but rarely common. It is generally in sharp decline and much endangered in Europe (Ref.:2). About 20 pilei growing solitary and in groups of several partly confluent fruit bodies; pilei diameter 5 - 8.5 cm, spines are dense and from 2 to max 3 mm long; stipe is not well defined, interwoven with surrounding organic ground debris, about 1-2 cm in diameter and 1.5 cm long, tapering toward the base, looking like a thick root; taste mild, mushroomy, not bitter; smell indistinctive; flesh corky-woody, charcoal black; SP whitish-beige, oac851.Spores coarsely warty.

However, this was barely so with this find. Apparently this trait is not very reliable. However, very small pores, barely seen by naked eye (6 pores/mm measured) and appearance in spring clearly distinct it from very similar Polyporus brumalis.About 50 pilei found on two places. Growing solitary and in groups, occasionally two fruitbodies confluent at the base of the stipe; pilei diameter from 35 to 70 mm, pore layer thin, up to 3 mm; stipe 3 - 5 cm long, 4 - 6 mm in diameter, equal and somewhat thicker at the base; pilei surprisingly sturdy, quite hard to cut and chew; smell mild, pleasant, mushroomy; taste distinct, mushroomy, somewhat unpleasant; SP abundant, whitish-light beige, oac851.Spores smooth.

Chevall., Lecidea incrustans (DC.) Chevall.EN: no name, DE: no nameSlo.: ?Dat.: Feb. 10. 2018Lat.: 46.36017 Long.: 13.704108Code: Bot_1111/2018_DSC0841Habitat: man made stone wall delimiting former pastures, now partly overgrown with bushes and trees; slightly inclined mountain slope, southeast aspect; calcareous, colluvial/glacial ground; partly in shade; relatively dry and warm place; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevations 580 m (1.900 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. Substratum: +/- vertical hard calcareous rock surface. Place: Lower Trenta valley; between villages Soa and Trenta; right bank of river Soa; next to the path from Trenta 2 farmhouse (now holiday cottage) to Trenta 2B cottage, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC. Comment: Genus Protoblastenia is comprised by lichens living on rock (saxicolous). Their thallus is crustose or grows within solid rock (endolithic) or it is something in between these two options. These lichens have usually yellow, orange or red apothecia and simple cell spores (Ref.:3). Their similarity to Caloplaca species on macroscopic level causes frequent confusions. However, Caloplaca species have two celled spores (septate spores), which distinguish them from Protoblastenia species with certainty.Protoblastenia incrustans is a common lichen, but it is certainly many times overlooked. Namely, thallus is usually endolithic and consequently hard to be seen. Its apothecia are very small, from only 200 to 500 microns in diameter (Ref.:3) and can also hardly be seen by naked eye in spite of the fact that they are bright yellow-orange color. Characteristically, its apothecia sit in small pits in the rock. Their surface is from slightly concave to slightly convex shape, most of them are nearly flat. This species is an arctic-alpine element (Ref.:5).Ref.:(1) F.S. Dobson, Lichens, The Richmonds Publishing Ca.LTD (2005), p 364.(2)

Trametes versicolor (L.)

Several authors consider it as the most frequent decomposer of wood of deciduous trees. It almost always appears in large, sometimes very beautifully colored, colonies. But it is also a very variable species, particularly in colors of distinctly zonate pilei. Because of that confusion with other species of genus Trametes is quite possible. The best distinguishing traits of Trametes versicolor for me are very small pores (up to 5/mm) and a distinctive, but very thin dark brown line between context and tomentum in cross-section. But one should cut pilei with a very sharp knife, or better with a razor blade. In this way the line remains undamaged and clearly visible. Growing in a group of several hundreds of pilei; pilei dimensions up to 4.6 x 2.9 cm and up to 6(8) mm thick, pore layer 1.5(2.5) mm thick; taste distinct, unpleasant, on rotten something?; smell mild, mushroomy; pore density 43/cm (SD=5.3, n=8), SP whitish-beige, oac 851.Spores smooth.

Lycoperdon pyriforme Schff.:Pers.Stump Puffball, DE: Birnen-StublingSlo.: hrukasta pranicaDat.: Oct. 6. 2010Lat.: 46.33524 Long.: 13.49631Code: Bot_465/2010_IMG2775Habitat: mixed wood, Picea abies and Fagus Sylvatica dominant trees; moderately inclined mountain slope, south aspect; calcareous ground; in shade, relatively warm place; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 6-7 deg C, elevation 1.000 m (3.300 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: short, highly disintegrated and moss overgrown log of Picea abies lying on ground.Place: Bovec basin; south slopes of Mt. Kanin mountain group, lower Gozdec place, next to the trail to Poljanca place, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC. Comment: Lycoperdon pyriforme has probably the most beautiful form of all our puffballs. It is a rather common species, which often grows in large tufted groups. It has almost global distribution (not present in Africa). In Himalaya it climbs up to 4.000 m elevation (Ref.:3). It is easy recognized by its typical form and the fact that it grows on rotten wood of conifers and broadleaved trees contrary to other puffballs, which grow on soil. Frequently the wood is almost totally decomposed or partly buried in ground, so it superficially appears that the mushrooms grow on soil. Further, white subgleba, which remains white also in mature sporocarps, is a sure identification characteristic. Photographed sporocarps were growing in a small group of six fruit bodies.Spores smooth.

I think this might be Ganoderma australe. It was quite a largish, flat bracket with obvious growth zones. It was sopping wet, so I couldn't tell if its surface was matt or not. It didn't have the "hoof" shape that Fomes species have.Photographed in Mt Victoria Forest Reserve on the Ralphs Falls track.

Species Fungorum)This fungus is a native of Australia and New Zealand (and possibly also parts of South-Eastern Asia, or even Southern and Eastern Africa) and was introduced to Europe involuntarily sometime in the 20th century; it is an invasive species which has spread quickly over a huge area. In Austria it is not too common at the time being but it may spread further.Der Tintenfischpilz stammt aus Australien und Neuseeland (ist eventuell auch in Sdostasien heimisch, vielleicht sogar auch in Sd- und Ostafrika); im 20. Jh. ist er versehentlich (als Wolladventiv?) in Europa eingeschleppt worden, wo er sich seither rasant verbreitet - Funde gibt es von Westeuropa ber den nrdlichen Mittelmeerraum und Mitteleuropa bis nach Sdskandinavien, die Ukraine und den Balkanraum.In sterreich ist der Pilz (noch?) nicht allzu hufig.

KrieglsteinerRusset Toughshank, DE: Waldfreund-RublingSlo.: vitka korenovkaDat.: Aug. 02. 2014Lat.: 46.44150 Long.: 13.64420Code: Bot_821/2014_DSC2477Habitat: alpine grassland, almost flat terrain, shallow calcareous skeletal ground with some silicate, relatively dry and warm place, full sun; exposed to direct rain; growing among Rhododendron hirsutum, Homogyne alpina, Antenaria carpatica, Dryas octopetala, Salix retusa, Helianthemum sp., Polygonum viviparum, Alchemilla sp., Potentilla crantzii, Trifolium montanum, Vaccinium vitis-idaea, Thymus serpyllum agg., Centraria islandica; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 0-2 deg C, elevation 1.975 m (6.500 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: apparently soil and debris of Dryas octopetala roots and branches.Place: Mt. Mangart's flats, east of the beginning of Mt. Mangart terminal road loop, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC Comments: Gymnopus dryophilus is a saprophytic species. Standard books generally consider it growing in all kinds of woods under trees (Ref.:7 and elsewhere). Its Latin species name suggests the same - 'dryophilus' means 'oak loving'. Similarly does its German name - 'Waldfreund' means 'friend of woods'. It is most common in submontane elevations 400-600 m (Ref.: 6.). That is why I was initially reluctant regarding my determination of these fungi found in open stony grassland far of any trees in an alpine phytogeographical region at around 2.000 m (6.500 feet) elevation. Later I realized that the species has been found in similar habitats also at significantly higher elevations than this: in Stubaier Alps, Austria (Ref.: 2) and Italian West Alps (Ref.:5), in Switzerland (Ref. 3), in Pyrenees (Ref.:4) and elsewhere outside of its 'traditional' habitats, for example in glacier forefront in Scandinavia (Ref. 8). Apparently the species must have a very broad ecological range.Growing mostly in groups of a few to several fruit bodies. Over 40 pilei were found in a plot of about 4 x 4 m. Pileus diameter 4(6) cm, stipe up to 8 cm long and up to 8 mm in diameter; taste and smell indistinctive, mild and mushroomy; SP white.Spores smooth.
