Dead Man's Fingers
Dead Man's Fingers
Latin name: Xylaria polymorpha
Dead Man’s Fingers appear throughout the year on beechwood stumps and also occasionally on other buried hardwoods. Dead Man’s Fingers is a very apt common name for this species. They rise in tufts that are variable in shape from cylindrical to knobby to branched or lobed. They are often bent and give the impression of arthritic hands. Mainly seen from June through to November although the tough fruit bodies can be found throughout the year.
