Pol DebaenstThe identification took me to Byssonectria deformi
I'd like to know your opinion on a very small ascomycete which grows on some decayed fruitbodies of Hypocreopsis lichenoides.Hight upto 1 mm, colour pale yellow/orange, growing gregarious or sparse, barrelshaped (cylindric, when young), top flat, later often convex, with what seems to be, a hardly visible papil.
Spores hyaline, smooth, septated, with guttules, 15 – 20 x 4 – 5 µm, septate in the middel or (more often) in the lower part of the spore.
Asci inoperculate, J-, 4-spored, 40-42 x 6 – 7 µm.
No paraphyses.
Excipulum textura epidermoidea.
No KOH reaction.

your fungus remains the genus Ijuhya. It would be great if you could send it to me because I have a specimen in the course of study resembling this one and I would like to compare it with mine.
Best regards,
Christian

Thank you for your suggestion. I'll also send some material to you.
René Schumacher mailed me already yesterday that he likes to investigate the species through cultivation and sequencing.
Fortunately there is enough material to share.
