Found on horse dung 3 different spicies which I cannot identify, I will send photographs separately of each ascomyceta.

The second one was an orange disk like asco. The skin can easily be peeled off.

Re : New problems on horse dung
Hello,
The first looks like some immature Ascobolus...maybe A. furfuraceus (for me, the more common Ascobolus on that substrate)
You should let it incubate some days, and look for purple-brown mature ascospore with striations

The third one was a cup with flat surface covert with little spots. One the edge of the disk were very small transparent hairs

Re : New problems on horse dung
Hello Joop
Quite agree with Pascal certainly Ascobolus furfuraceus but must be sufficiently mature spores to study accurately.?

Re : New problems on horse dung
I have made some new pictures of the ascobolus in Melzer the result was that the wall of the asci was not turning blue and the spores remained brown. Only some young spores had a pinkish border.
