Ethan CrensonHi all, Another find by a friend yesterday in Bro
Good evening,in spring I found these small ascomycetes on Abies alba needles. The biggest ones measured about 1 mm in diameter. I though it could be Cistella acuum, but everything is too long in my fungus - spores are 5 - 8 x 1 - 1,5 µm, asci 40 - 44 x 3 - 4 µm, hairs up to 105 x 2,5 µm. The inner ring is blue in Melzer. The hairs are covered with granules.
The other possibility I considered was Dasyscyphella pulverulenta, but my fungi lack the yellow resin and the shape of spores is a little bit different in comparison with this picture: http://www.ascofrance.com/forum/15317/cistella-dasyscyphella?
Locality: Czech republic, Moravia, Dlouhá Loucka
Date: 13th April 2013
Would someone have a tip?
Thanks a lot, Zuzana
Your drawings are a bit too schematic, from a photo I would perhaps be more sure. The hair apex should be smooth, not warted, however. Otherwise Lachnum virgnineum would be an option.

It´s not possible to make photos in my microscope :-( I tried to take a photo by a camera put on the eyepiece, but there´s nothing to see there (no details).
Probably Lachnum virgineum is the best idea.
You have a camera with a much bigger lens than the eyepiece, I assume.
You have a camera with a much bigger lens than the eyepiece, I assume.? Yes, I do :-) I will try o get a more suitable camera then and make some photos of the microstructures.
my way to make pictures through de bino, is an older type of the canon with display. They have the same lensopening as the oculair of the bino. I already do this for years. When the camera is broke down I look at bijv, Markplaats to buy an older example. The costs are low then.

be sure you have your camera set to infinity (very often a mountain symbol) not to macro or something else...

Important is to open the aperture and to have strong light to get a short shutter speed.
