Warre Van CaenegemI'm currently in Croatia doing fieldwork that is n
Ya sé que la información aportada no es muy abundante, pero tal vez por el hábitat, lo teneis identificado
On scales of a cone, ornamental spruce. Up to 2 mm in diameter. I've looked SEVERAL ASCI but I DO NOT see blue apex IN IKI or croziers, but without security, ASCI up to 38-70 x 4.5-5 microns. Ascospores smooth with SIMPLE VACUOLES AT THE spore ends and SOMETIMES WITH a central septum mature, of 9-14 x 1.5-2.5 microns. Paraphyses with multiple VBs, as well as hairs, blunt WITH inclusions and ornamentatED. Ectal ExcípuUM COMPOSED OF angular cells. STIPE cells with prismatic structure.
I know that the information provided is not very abundant, but perhaps WITH the habitat, you CAN IDENTIFY IT

from the micros I think this is a Lachnum, but from macroscopy this is quite improbable. You figured whitish and yellowish apos, is that variable or a matter of photography? What is the colour? And do the VBs in the paraphyses have a distinct yellow colour?
Lachnum papyraceum could be an option.

Zotto may not have noticed the hairs. This is certainly not Rodwayella citrinula, it does not have hairs.
I got to disagree of its substrates. It is claimed rare here, but I regulary find it on anything else besides grasses. This year twice, on propably Urtica and maybe Anthriscus or something like that.
Could this be some Lachnum? Are the paraphyses lanceolate?
Marja

But I also made the mistake of the paraphyses: they are asci.
Zotto

Any Ciliolarina or Cistella with such VBs and spores?
I will try to study it if Javier has more samples.
Raúl
PD: Good! I can see the discussion below while writing!

I studied two apos of Javier´s find and all recalls to Cyathicula. I have not been capable to find asci... they seem to have vanished. So no info about croziers. I have seen some blue dots in IKI, but not sure if they belong to the asci tips. Ectal excipulum of textura prismatica and oblita, very gelatinized. Scattered crystals. Also I have not found spores of the Cyathicula. If somebody wants more images, just ask me for them.
