Re : Sporormia fimetaria
Congratulations, Peter!
Very nice found!
What about the spore size?
I know this species with small spores (38) 40-46 x 3,5-4,0 µm.
This should be Sporormia fimetaria de Not. senso stricto.
In my opinion Sporomia fimetaria de Not. sensu Ahmed & Cain is another species with larger spores (50-57 x 3,5-4,5 µm).
See also the discussion in Richardson ("New and interesting records of coprophilous fungi. Bot. J. Scotl. (1999). 50 (2): 161-175").
Viele Grüße, Norbert
