growing at moist, drying-out soil at the side of a
Good morningThis Hypoxylon grew erumpent on branches with bark, but also others growing on wood without bark, and they are not erumpent. Macroscopically they are small balls, grouped together, with 4-8 perithecia inside each group. The stroma between perithecia is white and yellow. The measurements of each group of periteciums is (762,9) 837,8 - 1323,6 (1446,9) × (573,3) 576,5 - 726,7 (755,1) µm; N = 7; Me = 1169,8 × 647,9 µm (width x height).
Individual perithecium measurement is (304,1) 321 - 442,5 (444,9) × (187,2) 198,7 - 305,3 (331,3) µm; Q = (1) 1,2 - 1,7 (1,8) ; N = 14; Me = 367,6 × 254,8 µm ; Qe = 1,5 (height x width).
Asci 8-spores, IKI -, (134,6) 138,8 - 163,6 (174,7) × (7,7) 8,1 - 11,3 (12,3) µm; N = 14; Me = 151,1 × 9,7 µm. Pars sporifera (97,8) 111,5 - 127,1 (134,5) µm; N = 37; Me = 119,6 µm.
The spores are citriform, some with a small nipple at the sharp end. Germinative line is straight and goes from side to side. The apical apparatus of the asci is completely IKI -, even with pretreatment with KOH. The perisporium does not fall off with KOH. (9,5) 10,9 - 12,2 (12,7) × (6) 6,3 - 7,8 (8,5) µm; Q = (1,3) 1,5 - 1,8 (1,9); N = 37; Me = 11,6 × 7 µm ; Qe = 1,7
It has a solution of pigments in KOH of a light orange color, in the image I sent it looks too yellow.
The macroscopic aspect leads me to the Jackrogersella genus, but the non-amyloid apical apparatus does not match.
Thank you in advance.

Does anyone have the article? I'm being asked to pay to download it.
Cheers,
Jacques
I have to look carefully at the description, but with the keys I can perfectly get to X. discolor.
