Botryis sp. ? Grey hard mould on decaying twig
Stephen Martin, 09-11-2017 19:35
Stephen MartinI found this greyish mould with a silvery tinge colonizing a dead and decaying branch under Ceratonia siliqua (carob) and Prunus dulcis (almond). Under the micro, it revealed to be a densely intricated mass of hyphae with bunches of spores at the apex (not the tip but along a considerable length). The Hyphae have pigment incrustations and very prominent septa and cell walls. The spores (I need to measure them) seem to be hyaline while only the hyphae are fuscous. The hyphae are smooth but the terminal hyphae (where the spores are attached) are rugose.  

I was thinking that it is something related to Botrys or Stachybotrys. I am culturing the specimen and hope I would not get any contamination.

Hi Stephen, I may be mistaken but that looks like a xylariaceous anamorph to me. Best - Jason

Re : Botryis sp. ? Grey hard mould on decaying twig
Thank you Jason, u are probably right. The morphology.is similar to Nemania or Enteroleuca of this image but must be another genus foe Europe

Any further help (documentation or weblink) that may lead to the genus would be great.

Re : Botryis sp. ? Grey hard mould on decaying twig
Thank you for your help.... indeed the anamorph is turning to an Ascocarp (unless these are two different things) and from the mycelial mesh, there are these tiny dome-shaped structures emeging out, which indeed they look very simlar to Nemania sp.
