Arachnopeziza-like

Dear forum,


On the bark of Larix I found some some small cup-shaped apothecia 0.2-0.25mm on a copious whitish cobwebby subiculum. The hyphae showed some warts. Clamps were not present. Among the hyphae I found a lot of conidiospores of about 16x11µ.


The asci were uni- to irregularly biseriate and measured about 46x6µ. Spores were hyaline, allantoid and measured 7x2.5µ. The cylindrical paraphyses showed some small drops. Hairs were smooth, 20-30µ, and ended in a pointed tip.


Could this be Hyaloscypha fuckelii on hyphae of an anamorf fungus or belong anamorph and telemorph to the same species?

Re : Arachnopeziza-like
Hyaloscypha is a good choice. I only wonder about the conspicuous drop in the living asci which reminds me of Psilachnum. Actually I know Psilachnum also from coniferous bark.

The broad hyphae are another fungus.

Re : Arachnopeziza-like
The hyphae and spores, look very much like Haplotrichum, an anamorph of Botryobasdiium, a basidiomycete.

Re : Arachnopeziza-like
Hello,

is it absolutely sure, that the hairs are not glassy?

Propably not a good idea, but these look like Olla millepunctata.

Re : Arachnopeziza-like
Hi Marja

definitely not. I see in some hairs an apical minute glassy knob, and that occurs sometimes in Hyaloscypha.

Re : Arachnopeziza-like

Thank you for the suggestion Simon.I will try the anamorph key in Bernicchia

Good evening Hans-Otto


You are right about the vacuolar bodies although they are not always present.


Is Psilachnum the only choice with VB's?

Re : Arachnopeziza-like
I am not sure if these are VBs, although they are located in the vacuole. Not sure if they stain with CRB. And this drop does not only occur in Psilachnum. In Hyaloscypha I think it would be unusual.

Re : Arachnopeziza-like

Looks very much like a Hyaloscypha to me. Haven't seen Psilachnum-droplet often in Hyaloscypha, but occasionally yes, so not impossible. I think Larix is not that well known as a substrate (or maybe Raitviir knew it?). Most Hyaloscyphas show dextrinoid reactions, have you tried that? Works for dried material as well. Can't recall Psilachnums having dextrinoid reactions.

Re : Arachnopeziza-like
I think Timo means that hairs and excipular cells get a red stain in MLZ in various Hyaloscyphas.

Re : Arachnopeziza-like

:-), yep, hairs/excipula should turn something close to maroon / red wine / Earl Grey (no milk) (=dextrinoid). If something is turning blue only then you call it amyloid. But I'll take it that you just very much confirmed it as an Hyaloscypha.

Re : Arachnopeziza-like
I thought you meant the reaction of the apical apparatus. The hairs and the excipular cells don't react at all.
Kosonen Timo, 18-04-2019 07:44

Re : Arachnopeziza-like
ok! but yes, it's the hairs/excipula that should react. It's not that strong reaction always, but usually there is something. A small complication if no reaction at all :-)
