Pol DebaenstHello, Garden, Burgweg 19, Veurne, BelgiumOn 10/1

9.4.19, near Aljezur (west Coast).
The fungus was very common there and I also found it elsewhere.
The conidia were about 3,5 µm in diameter.
Who knows such a fungus?
Best regards, Lothar
Hello David
thank you very much for your answer and your suggestion. Yes, Dichlaena lentisci looks very similar - as far as I see in the small illustration on mycobank.
Unfortunately, I have no access to the paper you showed me with your other link (your paper).
I am back home since some weeks, and I only can send dried material. If you are interested in this, pleas tell me. I will go to the Algarve again, in future, and then I will try to find more.
Best regards and thanks, again,
Lothar
Hello Martin,
thank you very much for the paper - I received it well.
@David:
I will re-examine my material in the next days and will write again.
Thanks again, and best regards,
Lothar
Hello David and other readers,
today I re-examined the specimen.
First I mounted with Cotton Blue. No circular band seen, nothing else more.
Then I mounted in Carbol Fuchsine. No circular band. In my second attempt I found asci - this was great. So - the fungus should be related to Dichlaena lentisci.
But - although I have a lot of fantasy - I was not able to see a pale band on the spores.
What do you think?
If I should send you a specimen - to what address?
Best regards, Lothar
