Found 07-04-26, in Abies cephalonica. Diameter 1,
Could this be C. semiimmersa?
It looks very much like the find discussed on the forum/ included in the database:
http://www.ascofrance.com/search_forum/16959 and
http://www.ascofrance.com/search_recolte/3236
Can somebody provide one of the following papers (with descriptions of this species):
Réblová M. 1996. Two new Capronia species from the Czech Republic. Czech Mycol. 49(2): 77-83
or
Candoussau F. & Sulmont P. 1972. Dictyotrichiella semiimmersa nov. sp. Rev. Mycol. 36(3-4): 238-242.
Thanks for the help in advance!
Eduard
I agree that the morphology of the ascospores fits C. semi-immersa quite well (up to 20 µm long, > 5 µm broad, often inequilateral/slightly bent). Capronia pulcherrima for example is similar but has smaller ascospores.
I'm going to send you the two papers.
Best wishes,
Gernot
If it has till morning time or no other mushroom friend steps in I copy the first article.
Greetings Peter.
Edit: I see just, Gernot has already done it.
Thank you very much for sending both papers.
The other characters appear to match the species quite well. New for the Netherlands!
I guess the 5-septate Capronia I found a year ago (from the same locality and substrate), may have been also this species (but without noting longitudinal septa, spores not fully developed?): http://www.ascofrance.com/search_forum/28543

Thanks for your offer to send the paper.
It is nice to get such key papers for identification so fast so that the material can be checked again with descriptions at hand.
Regards, Eduard
