Hi,
2-3 cm tall, growing in opening among Pinus and various shrubs, in sandy acid soil. Around 250 m in warm mediterranean climate (Castellon, Spain).
Ascospores 67.2 x 6.3 Qe = 10.8
8-spored ascas 180.3 x 18.5 Qe = 9.5
Could it be G. subbarlae? G. barlae?
Thanks

Re : Geoglossum sp
Hi
I was hoping someone would offer advice on this find but as there has been no response these are my thoughts. The three photos of the paraphyses are very different with the first two showing what look like the contorted tips of G. difforme. Unfortunately the spores are not right for that species. The last photo of the paraphyses look much more like G. umbratile and that would also fit with the spores. One further species to look at would be G. scabripes which has the unusual feature of a hemiamyloid reaction at the tip of the ascus in Lugol.

Ascus tips turn blue in Lugol

Not scabripes then.
