Bonjour à tous,Je voudrais votre avis sur cette r
Hello,
I don’t know if I’m getting this correct. I came across clusters of bright red Nectria on the bark and the cut surface of a log. They are 0.2 to 0.3 mm across (around 5 per mm); have a rough surface with small points; the spores are around 16 x 5 microns with a single septum and with or without a droplet in each side; the asci have some sort of structure at the tip.
I’m guessing N. fuckeliana, but this has a couple of problems;-
- the structure at the tip of the asci doesn’t seem to extend right the way to the end of the asci.
- The clusters are not apparently sitting in the stroma of the wood.
If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
Thank you,
Gina.
I am working on taxonomy of Nectriaceae. One of the species we want to figure out is this one N. fuckeliana. Is it possible to have a fresh specimen and a culture of this collection? If you cannot culture it, maybe just a fresh specimen (not heat dried) that I could use for getting a culture?
Thank you.
Beautiful specimen!
Priscila
I still have the specimen with a few less spheres on it. If you would like to email me with your address I'll send it to you. Are you happy that it is N. fuckeliana?
Gina.
Which is your email address so I can send you my address?
Thank you very much!! :)
Best,
Priscila
