Hello,
I have this collection of Ciboria gallincola from Moravia (the Czech Republic). It grew in large amounts on galls of (probably) Andricus quercuscalicis on acorns. Apothecia measure up to 7 mm, are sessile or shortly stipitate, brownish (becoming more yellowish when drying).
Ascospores uninucleate, (7.6)8.2-10.4(11.7) × (3.2)3.7-4.2(4.4) µm, Q = (1.8)2-2.7(3.1); n = 100. Me = 9.3 × 4 µm; Qe = 2.3.
Asci IKI+, with croziers.
Medulla of text. intricata, ectal excipulum of text. globosa.
I read at this webpage that the delimitation of Ciboria gallincola vs. C. americana is unclear. Are there some news - did anyone sequenced C. gallincola?
Thank you, Zuzana
