this one is especially interesting for me because it is the host of an Unguiculariopsis that I plan to show here soon. First, I would like to know more about hte host. Growing on Quercus (Germany, Baaria), attached twigs at lying middle-aged log. The stromata contain some perithecia with white content (hyaline spores at least for long time). The asci are iodine-negative and bear croziers. There are plenty periphyses. The spores are for a long time hyaline, with the second cell distinctly enlarged, and measurea about 19-23/4-5,5 µm. The pink color in the fotos is from phloxine (mixed with water).
Can somebody help me with the identification?
Best regards, Lothar

Re : pyrenomycete on Quercus
today I re-examined the Unguiculariopsis. It could well be U. robergei which I had before but know that it surely still is a collectiv species.
I would much be interested what the host is - can somebody take a look and give a hint?
Best regards, Lothar

Re : pyrenomycete on Quercus
Hi Lothar,
do you have a sample of the Unguiculariopsis? If so, can you send this to me (if so, i will tell you the address via email)?
As your host is not Paraxylaria xylostei, U. robergei is excluded.

björn

Re : pyrenomycete on Quercus
The species where the Unguiculariopsis probably grows on, or at least what you have shown above, is Pseudotrichia minor. This is a species which grows on other pyrenomycetes. You can try a longitudinal section to see how it grows on the pyreno debris below.
It is possible that the host of the Unguiculariopsis is not actual Pseudotrichia minor, but the old pyreno (Botryosphaeria?).
