Dense coral fungi, possibly Aphelaria

Could be old Aphelaria, a clavaria, but also could be a Ramaria (spores look likely to be brown - Clavaria spores are white) coral clump growing at the base of an angophora, Seven Little Australian park, Lindfield NSW, March 5, 2017. The ground was charred and sooty, raining for several days. Many ends flattened and antler like, others spear shaped. About 20cms high and 30cms across. Light cream to yellow and dark tan.
