Nice one. I've only seen it on oak so far, but Annette Braun recorded it from C. dentata as well.

re: Annette Braun
The blog entry you composed on the anniversary of her birthday in 2011 introduced me to her story. What an amazing legacy she left us! I smile each time you ID a submission of mine that is associated with the investigations she performed over her career.
