Apothecia cup shaped to disc shaped of 2 mm across, stipitate, hymenium and outer surface yellow or pale yellow.
Asci with crosiers, unitunicate-inoperculate, with blue apical ring in IKI, 115-122 x 8,5-10 µm, in water, from fresh material and 1000x.
Spores fusiform-allantoid, smooth, with guttules, 14.9 [16.3 ; 17.3] 18.7 x 4.2 [4.7 ; 5] 5.5 µm; Q = 2.8 [3.3 ; 3.6] 4.1 ; N = 20 ; C = 95%; Me = 16.82 x 4.86 ; Qe = 3.48, in water, from fresh material and 1000x.
Paraphyses cylindrical, with abundant guttules, septate under guttulated zone.
Any idea??
Thanks

Hi Pablo
H. lutescens is a species of coniferous substate, I know it from cones. Your fungus has distinctly scutuloid spores (apex recognizable, with lateral protrusion), at least partly, a feature never seen in H. lutescens. Also the oil content is lower in H. lutescens.
I think it fits well in H. subferrugineus, a taxon very close to H. calyculus. A plurivorous species, especially abundant in montaneous areas.
The H. calyculus group has apothecial stipes usually longer than wide, whereas H. lutescens is a member of the H,. epiphyllus group, which has the stipe not longer than wide. How is the stipe in your specimen?

Re : Hymenoscyphus lutescens ??
Really. The stipe measures are 1,3-1,7 x 0,5-0,6 mm.
It is collected in Picos de Europa last week.
Is it possible that it grows on the wood of Ilex aquifolium?

Re : Hymenoscyphus lutescens ??
That is well possible. The species was recorded even on Picea, also Ribes alpinum, Fagus, Crataegus, Corylus etc.
