Setoseptoria arundinacea/Lentithecium arundinaceum?

Hello,

Found 14-07-2018 on Phragmites australis (dead stem).

Det.: Ellis & Ellis, p. 511 (Leptosphaeria arundinacea)

Spore sizes: 25.0-25.7-27.2 x 5.0-5.0-5.3 µm

Is this Setoseptoria arundinacea?


Greetings, Riet

Re : Setoseptoria arundinacea (Lentithecium arundinaceum)?
Hello Riet

the habit, with pseudothecia arranged in lines looks OK, though I have some doubts. The spores seem a little on the small side for this species perhaps, and I always think of them with rather acute apices.

Still you could be correct - can you see a sheath? - particularly noticeable at the spore apices as here (arrowed):

best wishes

Chris

Hello Chris,

Thank you for your help!
I will see if I can find sheaths. 

Best wishes, Riet

Hi,


It's probably the fungus called Massarina arundinacea (Sow.: Fr.)Leuchtmann. But what is Massarina today ?


I don't know why this fungus is given synonym of L. arundinaceum (cf Mycobank). Easy to recognize the fungus, but difficult to name it correctly to my mind.

Yes

another un labyrinthe de noms . . . The key paper (currently) seems to be Tanaka et al. "Revision of the Massarineae (Pleosporales, Dothideomycetes)" in Studies in Mycology 82: 75-136.


Attached are a couple of relevant "screen-grabs".The transfer to the genus Setoseptoria is, the authors themselves admit, tentative.

It is interesting to note the comment at the end that this taxon may contain cryptic species; this may explain the differences between Riet's collection and mine, pictured above.

Follow-up ...

First picture, material 14-07-2018, spores with sheaths?

The other pictures material 12-07-2018

On 12-07-2018 I had collected material from another place in the same area (distance about 1000 m)

14-07-2018 dead culms near a river

12-07-2018 dead culms near a small pond, nearby the river.

Spores in the material 12-07-2018 with rather acute apices.

Also sheaths or is it an optical illusion?

Hello Riet.

Surely no question this is arundinacea/arundinaceum. Which genus the species should be placed in is a bit more complicated - even the experts are not sure ;-).
