Green Perithecia
Georges Greiff, 25-04-2018 22:28
I came across this striking luminous green fungus growing among, but seemingly not parastising, the moss Pseudephemerum nitidum on the acid soil root mass of a fallen conifer.

Perithecia approximately 0.3mm with asci measuring 78 x 18, with many small ascospores inside. Ascospores appeared aseptate (not certain as not stained - buying congo red and cotton blue soon) and were constricted at the middle. A random spore in an ascus measured 4.7 x 3.0 microns. I did not see any liberated.

Not a good description - I am quite new to this - but any assistance would be appreciated as it was an interesting find. IoW, South England.

Note: It has been suggested as Thelocarpon.

Yes, Thelocarpon is a good idea.


Could you test it with Melzer. First to see if septum is present (it should be), then to see apical apparatus.

Re : Green Perithecia

Hallo, according to general outfit (rather flat, below constricted ascomata) as well as shape of asci (cylindrical clavate) it looks like Thelocarpon lichenicola to me, an algicolous non-lichenized species which is sometimes dealt in a separate genus Ahlesia. Good to test iod-kalium, at least in young asci deeply amyloid shallow tholus should occur. Best wishes
