Bonsoir Johan,

Nice collection  !

In the collections we studied with Zuzana Egertova (see paper in Ascomycete.org 2016) the supposed overmatured spores of B. hypnorum never got this regular 7-septate pattern .

 But the spore size you give here  are nearly twice the normal size,  even  for B. pluriseptata. The ascus in your pictures look dead .

Are all apothecia in the same state ?

So we agree

I once received a collection from Finland by Marja Pennanen but it was in such a poor state that I could not document it properly neither could we have it sequenced. Amazingly, it was also on the same site than her collections of B. hypnorum.

I do not know of any sequence for this species (unless a late one ?) and it would be interesting to compare it with B. hypnorum.

 I propose to receive an exsic if you have enough .
