Hello
In a section of a spot leaf of Ilex aquifolium, I observed what I did not expect. No asci or spores of Trochila ilicina but an intraepidermal formation shaped like an urn and releasing numerous spores or conidiaby a kind of ostiola. Hera are some photos. What do you think ?

Hi Enrique
Thank you for your help. So there would be 2 species on the same leaf ? I'll do a few more macros to confirm.

Hi Thierry
These are the two faces of the same fungus. The anamorphic and the teleomorphic stage of Phacidium lauri.
