Dear Forum,On decorticated wood of Castanea,I foun
Not a Chaetosphaeria. Not a Hilberina. Any ideas?Thanks,

Hi Andrew,
In the genus Leptomelia, black setose ascomata, there is one species with 5 septa brown ascospores and hyaline apical cells. But it seems to be different : L. scapaniae. But it's perpahps a way to follow.
See Racovitza.
Have you more microscopical elements ?

Thank you! Funny story: this specimen was sent to my colleague, Lee Crane, for annotation. It was labeled Leptomeliola sp. He found no asci, only a few ascospores, but did not recognize the ascospores as belonging to Leptomeliola. Thank you for the advice, I will check out this species and others in the genus.
Best,
Andy
