It seems reasonable to infer that the HF killed the tissue that the XP has 
utilised. Not sure you can assert much about the progress of the HF from 
that, though.

Saw this (Xylaria polymorpha) on the base of a large sycamore with a
decent-sized area of bark-loss and decay on one side, and Armillaria
rhizomorphs all around

Books say it's a deadwood specialist on Acer and beech.

Question: is the presence of a deadwood saprophyte an indication of the
progress of the killing of basal tissue by the Armillaria?
