Hello everyone,a few days ago I collected this strange but beautiful fungi on a decaying, slightly moist fallen branch of Carpinus betulus in a mixed forest. No clue, what it could be ... possibly some Xylariaceae?
Locality: Slovakia, Súlov-Hradná, NNR Súlovské skaly
Habitat: mixed forest (nature reserve) - Carpinus betulus, Quercus sp., Tilia sp., Pinus sylvestris, Picea abies, Taxus baccata
Substrate: a fallen, slightly moist branch of Carpinus betulus (approx. 3–4 cm thick)
Perithecia: 250–400 µm
Spores: 7.5–9.7 × 2.6–2.9 µm, turning greenish-blue in 3% KOH
Asci: 8-spored, IKI– in both Melzer's and Lugol's reagents, in Baral's reagent finely blueish
Thanks for any suggestions!
Filip

Hi Filip,
you should first make sure that what you call perithecia are not ostioles in relation with immersed perithecia. Take a razor blade and make a nice vertical section along the grain of the wood.
Cheers
