Henri KoskinenCould you help me in the right direction with this
Hello,Does anyone know what this is?
Found on Juniperus sabina, urban graveyard, Copenhagen, Denmark, march 12
Ascomata: on leaves, on dead attached branch. Closed and immature when found. Incubated for a week or two.
Hymenium: whitish to leather brown.
Asci: 8-spored, up to 108 x 8,5 my, spores arranged in parallel
Spores: 49,5 (41,2-58,9) x 1,8 (1,5-2,1) my, Q=28,5 (n=16), with a 2 my thick gelatinous sheet, and a greyish lump at the apical end, not extending much the overall gelatinous sheet, but diffracting light differently.
Paraphyses: filiform, unbranched, slightly broader at the tip, 2,5 my broad, without curled tips.
Peridium: about 45 my thick, with roundish dark cells.
I'm wondering whether this is Lophodermium juniperinum or something else?
Thank you in advance,
Mathias
Also, try to check Diaporthe juniperovora.
