Bonsoir, Un discomycète sur Liochlaena lanceolat
Earlier today I found a minute discomycete growing on dying leaves of Galium saxatile on a grassy streambank in the Lake District, NW England. Details as follows:
Apothecia 80-200 µm diam; with a short stalk; grey to pale greenish-blue (dark greenish-blue at the base of the stalk).
Asci 30-40 x 5-7 µm; 8-spored; apex blue in Lugols.
Ascospores fusiform; hyaline; 0-septate; 9-11 x 2-2.5 µm; 2 large oil bodies.
Paraphyses sparse; narrowly cylindrical; about as long as asci.
Hairs more or less cylindrical or slightly tapering to rounded apex; <40-45 x 2-3 µm; verruculose.
Some images attached.
I rarely look at discomycetes and I'm struggling to put a name to this specimen. Possibly a Cistella? I'd be grateful for any help anyone can provide.
Thanks
Marcus

Thanks for replying.
Apothecia were 80-200 µm (mostly towards the lower end of the range) & were distinctly stalked. I don't think the ectal excipulum was gelatinised.
No macro images I'm afraid.
The specimen is indeed sparse but if I get the chance I'll revisit the site & try to find some more.

What about Incrupila? -Then again, verrucose is not = thick crystalline crust on the hairs and hairs seem aseptate here as well. Green-blue colours certainly a rare character. Somewhere around Cistella or Hyphodiscus would be my guess (too). It doesnt look like a Hyaloscyphaceae (s str) or Lachnaceae (s lat), --kind of too fragile (?) for the latter.

The apothecia in my collection are very small and the turquoise colour isn't very well developed but in other respects it fits descriptions of Chlorocibora aeruginella.
