The absence of prominent cluster bracts over the flower spike rules out X. australis, the upper aspect of the leaf appears flattened to concave in some, this is also inconsistent with X. australis, therefore this is likely either X. resinosa or the affiliated X. concava.

Xanthorrhoea sp.

Interestingly the one on the top is a different species, probably Schizognathus burmeisteri.

That 'hoof' shape and the colour of pores indicates a Phellinus sp. maybe P. robustus. This genus causes white rot and is found on both dead or living wood of both angiosperms and gymnosperms . Ganoderma have white pores and also cause 'white rot' and grow mainly on angiosperms.
Good images, thank you.

Phellinus sp.

One ridge that I can see. There were also more than I estimated at first, 25 plants in total.

This is one of those many species that's had a name change from Pycnoporus to Trametes. Good to see there are still some fungi around. Sometimes if you look along the logs these grow on or at the ends, you will see that bright orange colour of their hyphae that make the log look like it's full of hot coals!
By the way if you want to find if there's been a name change do a search for Index Fungorum and on their search page click on the 'name' button then type in the name of the fungus you are searching in the window to the right. The spelling has to be correct. Anyway with a bit of practice you will get the hang of the site.
