Tom SchrierHi all,We found picnidia on Protoparmeliopsis mur
Found on horse dung,
Fruitbody is bulb shaped with a funnel on top; at the time the pictures were taken there probably was a spore release (photo 1-5).
There also was a release of what looked like an asci (26.19x3.77 um) but the origin is not known (photo's 11 thru 13)
Funnel 128.34-145.45x15.08-16.47 um
Spores:21.08-23.08x11.70-12.18 um
There's a fine Work from Nils Lundqvist about this genus.
"1980 - On the genus Pyxidiophora sensu lato. Bot. Not. 133: 121 - 144."
Sorry, I have this only as reprint. But maybe that someone can help with a PDF?
Nils allowed us to use his table for a small article in ÖZP, so that you can see it here:
http://www.landesmuseum.at/pdf_frei_remote/OestZPilz_15_0213-0224.pdf
Look at pages 216/17 and 219 (pictures).
The spores at your pictures 7 & 8 are not from this species.
At 9 & 10 one can see the three-spored asci and 11 shows a single ascospore (right in the middle).
Nice find, Joop!
Norbert
If someone has the job of Nils Lundqvist on the genus Pyxidiophora sensu lato, I am also interested.
Thank you.
Michel
Thanks Norbert, do you have any idea which specie produces the spores from foto-9&10.
I provide some new photós I have taken op the 2nd of december even one with a fruitbody deploying two necks and fruitbody hairs on phto-3
