Hello, could anyone please send me the article wi
A friend sent me this one dried fruit. After moisturizing about 2.5 mm. According to a friend's account, it grew on the ground, but there are also mosses nearby.
Almost all the traits fit Hymenoscyphus epigaeus (= Phaeohelotium epigeum), now rather Bryoscyphus?
However, I am puzzled by quite large spores, I measured a few:
Me = 16.9 × 3.8 µm; Qe = 4.5
18.19 3.50
20.35 4.46
14.33 3.58
16.31 3.57
16.86 3.71
15.16 3.78
As you can see from the photos, the spores are already septate in ascus.
Croziers (+)
Reaction to iodine fairly gentle but regular (BB)
Sorry for the bad quality of the photos, but it is difficult to get a clear image from hydrated material.
best regards

In my case, H. epiphyllus, due to the constant lack of moisture, usually grows on decaying stumps or thicker pieces of wood. In wet weather, also on finer wood remnants and on bedding.
