Gernot FriebesHi,found on Vaccinium myrtillus.Asci: IKI –, 8-s
Dear forum members,I identified this as the teleomorphic form of Botritys cinerea (syn. Botryotinia fuckeliana), but I find little information about this form.
Can anyone confirm this?
Between mosses and litter of Quercus robur, Picea abies; seemed attached to a leaf fragment of Quercus robur. no macroconidial anamorphic state seen (Anamorph of Botrytis cinerea was present in the area)
Apothecia: 0.8-2 mm diam.
Stipe 12-16 mm long
Sclerotium lenticular, with rind of subglobose-angular cells
Sclerotial hyphae hyaline
Excipulum with globose cells, elongated at the edge
Asci 8-sp, in 1 to 2 rows; 80-100 x5-8 µm, with croziers
Spores: (8.4) 8.6 - 10 (11.1) × (4) 4.3 - 4.8 (5) µm;Q = (1.9) 1.91 - 2.2 (2.3) ; N=24; Me = 9.3 × 4.5 µm ; Qe = 2.1
Paraphyses filiform with elongated vacuoles
I ruled out
Sclerotinia: no matching species found with 1-nucleated spores
Moellerodiscus: has narrower spores
Ciborinia pseudobifrons: is 2-nucleated (I only saw 1-nucleated spores)
Thanks in advance, Lieve
No, the vacuoles were not strongly refractive, and yes, Alnus glutinosa was also present in the area.
Beautiful publication (Ascomycete.org, 17 (3): 47–66) of your Scleromitrula capillipes. Everything seems to match. I had even observed "a few ejected spores with delicate detaching sheath" but considered it as damage. I read in your publication that it has even been found in Belgium (B. Clesse, Wallonia).
Thanks again for your help.
