E. lycoperdon grows typically on dead alder branches, logs, and stumps in wet places beside rivers, streams and wetlands; it is also found growing on dead elm, beech, poplar, hawthorn, elder, hornbeam, damson, [9] hazel, [10] and pine trees [11] often after late frosts in spring and in the autumn.
Ophiostoma ulmi can reproduce asexually by overwintering in both the bark and upper layers of dead or dying elm wood as mycelia and synnemata. [6] Synnemata produce conidia that are sticky and can be spread by vectors. In Dutch elm disease, the vectors that transmit Ophiostoma ulmi are Scolytid beetles. The conidia stick to the bodies of adult ...
Hypsizygus ulmarius, also known as the elm oyster mushroom, [1] and less commonly as the elm leech, [2] elm Pleurotus, is an edible fungus. It has often been confused with oyster mushrooms in the Pleurotus genus but can be differentiated easily as the gills are either not decurrent or not deeply decurrent. [ 3 ]

They do not always appear, [21] but when they do they can be found on both living and dead trees near the ground. [21] These mushrooms produce and release the sexually created basidiospore which is dispersed by the wind. [21] This is the only spore-bearing phase. The fungus overwinters as either rhizomorphs or vegetative mycelium. [25]
