Hi everybody,I found this Mollisia species on Urtica dioica this weekend.
Apothecia up to 1,2 mm in diameter, subsessile, white. Ascospores 1-septate, already in the ascus. Oil 3-4, (11-15) 13,3 x 2,98 (2,8-3) µm. Asci 78-100x7-8, biseriate, IKI redbrown, without croziers, Paraphyses with rectangular refractive content, KOH negative. Hairs up to 40 µm, endcells with refractive content.
Thank you for your help
Regards Maren

Re : Mollisia sp. with red IKI-reaction
For me it is a Calycina, maybe C. herbarum.

Re : Mollisia sp. with red IKI-reaction
Quite simple: Calycina herbarum :-)
Calycina has VBs very similar as Mollisia.But Mollisia has never these narrow isolated "hairs".
