Hello,
Found 31-01-2019 by a mushroomfriend on herbaceous plant.
To get an approval on a dutch website a second opinion is required.
Chris Yeates mentiones the difference with Phragmocephala elliptica in this topic:
http://www.ascofrance.fr/forum/41935/phragmocephala-elliptica
"A key character compared with the rather similar Phragmocephala atra is that the conidiophore cluster is joined only from close to the base"

"A key character compared with the rather similar Phragmocephala atra is that the conidiophore cluster is joined only from close to the base"
I don't know if there are more look-a-likes .....
Is Phagmocephala atra correct?

Re : Phragmocephala atra
