Mollisia with red ascustop IKI
Jac Gelderblom,

Hello
On culms of Typha I found a small mollisia (ca 0,7 mm diam.)
Asci: 50 - 60 x 5 - 5,5 micron, top red in IKI (fotot 4), with croziers (Foto 3)
Spores: 9-12x2,2-2,8 micron, with drops in water (foto 5)
Parafysen with refractive VB's (Foto 2)
KOH reaction very week, dubious.
Foto 1 is the excipulum with marginal cells.
My first thought in the field was M. palustris, but the red ascustops........
Can anyone help me finding a name?
Friendly greetings

Re : Mollisia with red ascustop IKI
I remember only one with rather small, 0-septate spores: M. lothariana. I think it is. Grows on different Poaceae and Typha.
