According Wikipedia
[Daldinia concentrica] is a useful form of tinder for fire-lighting. The brown variety is usually too heavy and dense to be much good; the black variety is lighter and better. It does need to be completely dry, whereupon it will easily take a spark from a firesteel. It burns slowly, much like a charcoal briquette, with a particularly pungent smoke. Once lit it is quite difficult to extinguish, but fragments can be broken off and transferred to a tinder ball to create an open flame.



Tarzetta?







Stinking Hellebore (Helleborus foetidus)

Thanks to those at iSpot for the ID.
