inoperculate discomycete from ethiopia

Uwe Lindemann, 02-11-2008 01:23

Hello,
at the end of september 2008 I found in addis abeba (ethiopia) a difficult inoperculate discomycete, growing on bark of a broadleaf tree (ficus?).

Macroscopic features:
Apothecia: 2-3 mm diameter, yellow, sessile, at the margin with brown hairs

Microscopic features:
Ascus: 110-130 x 10 ym, without crozier, containing 8 parallel lying ascospores, porus in IKI blue
Ascospores: 48-58 x 2,5-3,5 ym, hyalin, 6-8 septate, filiform, strongly curved
Paraphyses: lanceolate
Hairs: brown, 80 x 4,5 ym, septate, thick-walled, obtuse

What do you think about this discomycete? I have no idea...
Thank you very much for your help!
Best wishes
Uwe
