Vibrissea flavovirens?
Stefan Jakobsson, 08-07-2022 02:34
I found a Vibrissea which in most respects resemble V. flavovirens. However, the color is more greyish than "flavovirens". Also the asci and spores are somewhat small. The living asci are on average 175 µm long and the spores about 130 µm. The 16-segmented spores behave as they should, break up into four part-spores with four segments: (24.8) 26.6 - 35.8 (40.9) × (1.2) 1.4 - 1.6 (1.7) µm.

Can it be confirmed that this is V. flavovirens?

Re : Vibrissea flavovirens?
I think the colour is not so important. Since I do not have an overniew on available measurements, I cannot easily say if such small measurements ever occurred, but I do not know a further species with these characters.

Re : Vibrissea flavovirens?
Thank you!

I looked up the asci and spore size in a few sources.

Re : Vibrissea flavovirens?
Thanks for this survey. In my key I wrote for flavovirens:

asci *260-343 x 6.5-8.8 µm

spores *125-195 x 1.2-1.8 µm

spore fragments *(27–)30-42(–51) µm

Ascus measurements in your table are probably mostly in dead state, but the differences to living asci are apparently not very high.

In the type of V. minima Velen. on Salix, which I restudied and considered a synonym, I found asci +154 x 4.8-5.3 and spore fragments 27-48 µm. So your spore fragments are a bit shorter than usual.

In a collection from Sheffield (HB 9520) I measured spores *125-134 µm long (like yours), breaking into 4 part spores of *27-38 x 1.3-1.6 µm, 4-celled (ascus length  not measured).

In the case there is a continuum of measurements among collections, I suspect that living asci much shorter than 260 µm also occur.

Identities in the literature are perhaps not certain. E.g. Zheng & Zhuang 2017 do not mention the number of spore cells and fragments, but the spore photo suggests flavovirens indeed.
