Hi Forum,I have singled out this species as it is one of the few that perhaps grows on Fagus and has the following specifications:
Ascospores: 7.31 - 9.21µm x 2.57 - 3.17µm, thin walled with mostly obvious 2-guttulate.
Body: 0.4mm or less, fine rasied high white hairs on white but translucent apothecia where sessile to substrate, drying staying white.
Asci: Contents compact taking up most of ascus, seriate, possibility of croziers but unclear, 42 - 50µm x 6.20 - 6.90µm, pointy apex and IKI plus, but pale in Melzers.
Paras: Thin and cylindrical except at apex where slightly rounded and larger at 2.0µm and appears to contain a single crystal, eye or similar there only. Branching regularily.
Hairs: not defined well, but suggest straighter at ends than most.
Added pics here, water. Have looked at H. albohyalina but ascospores more oily at polar ends and asci top heavy only, also H. hyalina, but again spores don't look good, and H. spiralis and H. aureliella the asci fit doesn't look good either.
Apprecaite any help,
Tony
