    Last week I have collected this nice purplish ascomata on old indeterminate leaves (Petasites, Ranunculus?) at 1600 m of altitude. Disc up to 0.7 mm in diameter, margin fimbriate, stipe up to 2 mm.
                                    Enrique Rubio,

            Re:Rutstroemia cf. venusta
                I have seen on Zotto's CD one plate of Rutstroemia cf. venusta and I think could be very close with my collection. What do you think?
Many thanks
Enrique

                Great collection indeed! Yes, I feel this is absolutely the same as I depicted. "My" specimen was found by Till Lohmeyer on "probably" Petasites.

                Congratulations, Enrique, 
your collection fits in all respects my Bavarian collection from 1981. I have never forgotten this beautiful little cup fungus found on my birthday that year ... The "true" R.venusta Svrcek (see Ceska Myk. 20/1/1966) has considerably bigger spores, but apart from that it's very close.
Where did you find the cute thing geographically? Was it in the Pyrenees?
Best regards
Till

                Thank you to all.
My collection is made at Somiedo's Natural Park, a very nice region of Asturias (N of Spain).
It's this fungus a microspored form of the true R. venustula?

                Re:Rutstroemia cf. venusta
                The type of R. venusta was on Helianthemum. I did not compare the image, but the spore size in my database (13-20 x 5.5-7.5 µm) clearly excludes that. Surely a different species. For Petasites I have only Sclerotinia sclerotiorum  wit that spore size in my database
