Bonjour à tous, Marcel LECOMTE président de L'A
These very small (up 70 125 microns), superficial, blackish, roundish and pilose ascomata grew on decorticated wood of Quercus ilex. Could be Capronia pilosella/Herpotrichiella moravica with so long hairs up to 210 mic. long? Are these names synonims?
Thanks again
Hopefully this helps,
Regards, Eduard
hairs/setae are not Capronia-like, but typical for Chaetosphaeria species. Are they realy belong to the fruitbodies or are they just surrounding them? I had C. pilosella many times, always with very small spores and distinct black acute setae of ~60-80µm length.
regards,
björn
Hi Björn
Yes. the hairs undoubtedly belong to the ascomata. And yes, my older collections of Capronia pilosella have blackish, short acute setae as you say.
Thanks again
