Seeking genus for 1 – 3 septate spored asco. on herb Nepteta cataria (Mint).
Hardware Tony, 12-04-2026 17:56
Hardware TonyFound on dead stems in February earlier this year and following regrowth confirmed this substrate. Seeking help identify at least for the genus as at a loss where this belongs, spores shape probably important but apprecaite any help.

Substrate: Nepteta cataria (Catmint) dead lower stem.
Ascocarps: Superficial, gregarious, subglobose, 0.1mm rounded black. No obvious ostiole. Surface roughened.
Asci: Clavate, fairly thin-walled, up to 89 – 93 x 9.7 – 10.3 µm, IKI -, 8-spored, uniseriate spores, croziers not obvious and appears negative.
Ascospores: Ellipsoid-fusoid, 1 – 3 septate, 1-2 inside ascus, 3 – matured, turning into one side flattened slightly, with 2-5 fairly large random oil drops, thin walled, no constriction, hyaline 17.0 – 21.5 x 6.0 – 8.0 µm
Excipulum: Textura angularis, hymenium bluing reaction in water.

With many thanks Tony Hardware

Due to the bluing perithecia in transmitted light it all seems to fit Gibberella pulicaris. Thanks to those that took the time to consider.  Tony

Hi,

The current name of Gibberella pulicaris (s.str.) is Fusarium sambucinum. However determinetion of Gibberella/Fusarium species is not simple. There are multiple taxa with very similar morphology, see for example:


http://www.ascofrance.com/uploads/forum_file/GIBBERELA-Samuels-G.-J.-H.-I.-Nirenberg-and-K.-A.-Seifert-0001.pdf


Maybe helpful, maybe not.


cheers Mathias

Re : Seeking genus for 1 – 3 septate spored asco. on herb Nepteta cataria (Mint).
Thank you Mathias, any further description and keys is always helpful. I became aware of the change in name when entering the record and also noted that G. cyanogena (maybe British issue only) has now been lumped together with G. pulicaris, now Fusarium sambucinum as you stated. I closely checked the keys and am still reasonably happy with F. sambucinum as most other species generally have much smaller width spores, very much larger spores generally or have specific substrates. I didn't observe conidia nor tried to culture but something I might consider in future if species are accepted through culture results. Thank you once again for your interest.  Tony.
