In this Thursday episode of Talking Trees, we spotlight a practical digital tool developed by Tim Moya Associates (TMA)—a free mobile app designed to help arborists and tree managers identify wood-decay fungi on trees in the UK.

We discuss:

How the app simplifies fungi identification through intuitive menus, photos, and information on decay type, host species, and ecological role
Its value for field-based arborists, consultants, and students seeking fast, reliable fungal data
TMA’s broader work in arboriculture, ecology, and land management, and how this app reflects their commitment to practical, accessible tools
The role of fungi identification in tree risk assessment, conservation, and long-term management planning
How apps like this enhance knowledge-sharing and diagnostic confidence, especially for early-career professionals or those without specialist mycological training

This episode highlights the growing power of digital tools in arboriculture, bridging expertise with everyday decision-making in the field.
