Bonjour,Voici une récolte faite il y a quelques j
Hello all
During a foray at Longshaw, Derbyshire in August I found a Spruce Cone with distinctive purple 'tubular' growths. Size upto 4 mm x 0.75mm. At the time I found no significant fungal evidence.
On incubating for almost 3 months inside a plant propagator (left in the garden) a very nice Ascomycete developed.
Largest fruitbody Stem 5mm, Disc 6mm
Ascus tips blue in Melzer's. Spores 20.5 - 23.5 x 4 - 6.5 micron
My thoughts were of a Possible Ombrophilia, but really not sure at all
Any help, comments as usual very much appreciated
John
This is Ascocoryne cylichnium.

Zotto
Due to the substrate I was fooled into thinking this was something entirely different!
