Can someone help with this Scutellinia.Found on rotting wood
pale short hairs less than 350um x 29 um mostly unbranched
broadly ellipsoid spores 23 x 16.5 with low coalessing warts
The ascii were 250 x 23
S kerguelensis is my best guess.
Thanks
Malcolm

Re : Last years Scutellinia
Adio Mal,
Hairs and sporal ornementation (but it's difficult to see) could correspond to "S. nigrohirtula complex". It's a complex with two species (DNA data) and I have not finished the study.
The size of spores could correspond but you've made measurements on immature spores. Measures are better if you take them on mature spores (in asci or, better, in a sporogram), in H2O or in C4B, differences between the two reagent are not significative.
But it's very important to measure with mature spores.
