Bonsoir à tous,Voici ce que je pense être Scutel
Trichopezizella rubroguttata (?) sur Polygonatum multiflorum

Trouvé récemment ce que je pense être Trichopezizella rubroguttata sur sceau de Salomon multiflore. Les asques ont systématiquement un crochet à la base.
Qu'en pensez-vous ?

It is a good question, but the asci look a bit strange, their contents are guttulate unlike these Trichopezizellas. The asci are amyloid?
You don't find living asci and free spores?

Good evening Zotto,
The asci are IKI- and I have not found any spores, but lots of small conidia.

I'll double check if I see spores in other apothecia

Hi Zotto,
Would you have a conclusion for this Trichopezizella with these asci and these strange spores ?

Re : Trichopezizella rubroguttata (?) sur Polygonatum multiflorum
Yes, now I have. It was my suspicion, but I wasn't sure at all. You have two organisms in one: T. nidulus with the hymenialparasite Helicogonium- I guess a new species.
Would be good to photograph more of the normal spores, they are actually the ascuspores. Especially the stage when they produce a terminal conidium is important since some species form conidia on the broader and and some on the narrower, but this is a bit variable.
In any case spore and conidial size should be measured.
You can consult my paper on the genus in Nova Hedwigia 69: 1-71.
I send it by mail.

Re : Trichopezizella rubroguttata (?) sur Polygonatum multiflorum
Interesting! I learn every day (I did not know there were parasitic fungi inside asci). I will wait for your mail to see more clearly.
Thank you very much, Zotto!

Re : Trichopezizella rubroguttata (?) sur Polygonatum multiflorum
Not inside asci, the complete asci belong to the parasite. Therefore they are inamyloid (in all Helicogonium), and have croziers.

Re : Trichopezizella rubroguttata (?) sur Polygonatum multiflorum
Ah OK, Zotto, I understand better and so I photographed helicogonium asques ...
Thank you for your additional explanations
