Mature spores

A post just to emphasise the importance of using mature/ejected spores when trying to identify Scutellinia.The first examination of a specimen sent by a colleague showed almost no mature spores but one or two small examples with a network of warts on still in the ascus.
When I was finally able to bring it to maturity the narrowly elliptical spores had obvious mostly individual warts which its relatively short hairs it made Scutellina cejpii easy to identify.

Re : Mature spores
We will have a paper published on the importance of this and methods too. It is in press and will hopefully be published in a month. I hope that it will be useful to people!
