Tiny discomycete from Highlands, North Carolina
Danny Newman, 14-08-2014 02:45
Danny NewmanIn collecting the larger of the two fungi in the first image, I noticed a significantly smaller one surrounding its base in troops. They have the shape of small rings appressed to the substrate, each measuring less than 1mm in diameter. I have not the remotest idea as to what they could be, but their microcharacters are quite charismatic. Hopefully, they will be enough for the AscoFrance community to arrive at an ID.

Many Thanks in Advance,

PS: apologies in advance for photo quality.  these were all taken with a camera phone.

The anamorph is surely Ascocoryne sarcoides.
The apothecia I cannot clearly see. Their inamyloid, ?fissitunicate asci possibly exclude a member of Helotiales. 

More details are needed such as excipular structure and a section (is it apothecioid?)

Mr. Baral,

I will scope these again with an eye for excipular characters.  they are most certainly apotheciate, though the discs are extremely small (fraction of a mm).

Re : Tiny discomycete from Highlands, North Carolina
in lieu of new micrographs (I do not currently have access to a scope), what about Thaxteriella aff. pezizula?

Re : Tiny discomycete from Highlands, North Carolina
That would be a pyrenomycete and my knowledge is poor herein.
