Dark spots on Caragana
Marja Pennanen, 11-01-2015 16:16
Hello forum,

these about 0,2 mm wide spots on Caragana turned to be pyrenomycetes.
They are much wider than high and seem to grow under the outermost layer of the bark.
The spores are at least now hyaline, 18-24x4-6 and contain 4 droplets.
The asci are about 70-120x9-12.

Help with the determination is truly welcome: Marja

Hi Marja,


Probably an Arthopyrenia species.

Cher Alain,

merci!

So, it may be a lichen.  This is an interesting piece of information for me.
I have thought, that lichens grow on a surface not under it...

Hi Marja,

indeed Arthopyrenia. This genus belong to a group of lichens called "pyrenocarpous lichens", because they simulate pyrenomycetes fruitbodies. They occur on the bark of various deciduous trees, in my region Arthopyrenia cinereopruinosa is commonest.
