Question

Answer

Dobrý deň, aj keď nevidíme detaily, chrobák v strede by mal byť prezimujúci lykožrút smrekový. Larvy nad ním by mohli byť dvojkrídlovce Diptera, tie sa často pod kôrou v požerkoch lykožrútov vyskytujú. S pozdravom J. Vakula

Question

Answer

Dobrý deň,  podľa priloženej fotografie sa jedna o Koznačku hrdzavohnedú - Hymenochaete rubiginosa. Plodnice sú kožovité, smerujúce dole, klobúk je rozložený na spôsob skridlíc s úzkymi pásikmi po obvode, okraj klobúkov je žltkastý. Huba spôsobuje pľuzgierovitú hnilobu dubov a gaštanov. Často sa vyskytuje na spracovanom kmeni gaštana, na pňoch a opadnutých konároch.  S pozdravom.  V. Longauerová

Živý strom v poraste, znaky poškodenia od územku do výšky zhruba 5 m. Dĺžka prasklín 3-12 cm.

Jedná sa o staršie poškodenie kmeňa  lykožrútom bukovým. Neúspešný nálet lyožrútov na živý buk, požerky boli zaliate miazgou, strom sa ubránil. Následne, počas rastu, vznikajú na poškodenej kôre praskliny.
