Bonjour à tous, Marcel LECOMTE président de L'A

Found on cow dung.
Perithecium embedded in the dung whereby only the neck is sticking out. Neck is covered with straight hairs short at the top 130-159 um and longer at the base 500-600 um, both with a width of 4.5-5.5 um, thickwalled 0.9-1.2 um, 5-6 septa hairs constricted but not at the septa.
Asci: Only one mature ascus found containing 512 spores 470x160 um with a short stalk. It is difficult to find an ascus still containing spores because most of the time they collaps and counting the spores will be impossible.
Spores: 18.5-21.5x11.5-13 um, pedicel 13-15x4.5-5.5 um, upper cauda and lower cauda present.
The number of spores are counted by pressing the ascus and spreading the spores, the software is adding a dot and a number to each spore this way counting a great amount of spores is possible (foto-12) and then it's just a matter of counting the end numbers of each overvieuw
The cauda seems to consist of two lashes see foto-8 whereby the end of two lashes is visible by the cauda connected to the pedicel.
When pressing the deck glass caudas becomes extremely long foto-11
Also by pressing the ascus it looks as if the spores are connected to each other by a string when forced out of the ascus. (foto-10)
