What exactly do you mean by a "secondary infection" Ron? 
 
I'd've been thinking Phellinus igniarius for Ian's conk. I did  point out 
last year sometime that we found a bright yellow bracket on Poplar  
(Laetiporus-yellow) that rapidly turned a fawny colour and proved to be  
Perennipra 
fraxinea. I think we so seldom see P fraxinea that  it's not been adequately 
described yet. (Then again we could be wrong)
