Description:
Perithecia roundish 600-1000 µm, deeply sunken, later rising slightly from the substrate. Perithecium glabrous with few hyphae, cell wall translucent gray-greenish. Cells mostly 10-25 µm, mixture of Textura angularis and Textura globulosa.
Neck curled out of the substrate at maturity, 180-250 x 70-90 µm. Densely packed with clumps of thick-walled, curved hyphoid hairs up to approx. 15 x 4 µm. Hair tips rounded off.
Asci young cylindrical, bluntly rounded. At maturity, saccular, apical and basal tapering. Usually only one to three mature asci, which are surrounded by several immature different stages. Asci at full maturity often misshapen, easily disintegrating. 500-650 x 100-150 µm. 1024-spored.
Paraphyses consisting of cylindrical segments up to 70x15 µm. In a rounded cell ending up to 30x25 µm.
Spores 15,0 -16.6 x 10.3-11.1 µm with subapical germ pore. Pedicell 7-9 x 3-3.5 µm, rapidly collapsing at maturity. Apical caudae crooked, up to 20 µm long, about 1.5 µm wide. Basal caudae formed as apical. Measured estimated, since always strongly curved.
