Hello Forum,
I recently found a little discomycet which I can't determine.
Macroscopic features:
Apothecia gregarious, sessile; Disc 0,1-0,3 mm, young pale beige, old greyish and brownish with a greenish tint (see photos)
Microscopic features:
Asci arising from croziers, 8spored, 45-55 x 6-7 µm, mostly biserate, IKI- and MLZ- !
Spores ellipsoid, hyaline, aseptate, with two polar guttules and/or some small guttules, 6-7,3(9) x 2,7-3(3,5) µm
Paraphyses filiform, 2 µm wide, sometimes slightly thickened at the apex
Hairs hyaline, thin to thick walled, coarsely warted, up to 5 µm wide; in some areas of the excipulum they are yellowish caused by a yellowish "exudate" which covered the outside of the excipulum.
Ectale excipulum: textura prismatica, mostly getalinous
It grows on Rubus.
My first guess is Hyphodiscus hymeniophilus but the size of the spores and the substrate are not fitting well.
What do you think about it? I would be very happy if you can help me!
Best Uwe
