Neonectria coccinea

A fungal pathogen of Beech (Fagus sylvatica), which in severe cases can kill the tree.

Neonectria coccinea: The Red Fungus Threatening Beech Trees

from Paul's Back Garden Safari


Yellow Fungus

From SW

I have keyed this out in Ellis & Ellis and arrived at
Mariannaea elegans
Colonies effuse, whitish to pale golden brown.  Conidiophores hyaline, 200-750 x 10-14, vertically branched at the apex.  
Conidia formed in slipped chains or slimy heads, hyaline, fusiform or angular, 4-6 x 2-3.5.  On wood and bark.
From Plant Parasites of Europe

Beech (Fagus sylvatica)

Probably a boundary group made up of a number of trees

Decidedly muscular as Beech often are.

Inosculation or natural grafting. Multiple trees planted very close together can grow into a single, large thick trunked tree.

As they grow together the bark scrapes away and the cambium layers fuse together.

Known as bundle planting

also sometimes called

A bit confusing this as the leaf above shows no teeth.

But as Julia pointed out (Thank you)

• Lf bases are very narrowly decurrent (had to look long and hard on this)

• No teeth on the fresh new leaves of the specimen (but found toothed leaves amongst older parts). Smith says: 'margins sometimes entire in plants in dry habitats.', although teeth maybe 'obsolete' in P. rostratum.

• Laminal cells porose (not or hardly so in P.rostratum).
