Hi
I would be grateful if someone helped me in determining the genre :)
Small sporocarps; Ø <1 mm.
They grew on a thin branch of Prunus.
Spore segments so different that in the photo I gave only sample dimensions.

Re : Schizoxylon sp.
Hi Mirek
Well documented! And I did not see so often living asci with thin-walled apex in Ostropales. You could look for the apex of dead asci which should be thick-walled. Asci appear to be inamyloid.
I have images of S. compositum which seem to be similar to yours.

Re : Schizoxylon sp.
Hi Zotto.
Oh yes, ASCI is inamyloid.
To be honest, I haven't looked at your disk before. I can see now that I put my photos on it, so at least I will give the collection date: 2020.06.09. You probably guessed the location of the find. Right next to my residence (0.3 km E Ogrodniczki).
I took pictures in KOH and Lugol. Rather thick-walled whole asci can be seen.
Thank you very much.

Re : Schizoxylon sp.
Good, and the laterally thick wall is also typical.
Do you still have restrictions for collecting?

Re : Schizoxylon sp.
Are you asking about covid?
If so, we have no restrictions now.
I live in the countryside, I have 100m to the forest, so I managed even during restrictions. Let's not exaggerate, the ban on entering the forest for some time, was probably the most stupid ban. Bia?ystok is a small city and we have thousands of hectares of forests around us, so in our case such a ban had only negative effects. I work in trade (groceries) so the bans didn't concern me, I could move freely. Currently, only masks apply in public places, but only indoors and in communication.
I wish you health.

Re : Schizoxylon sp.
I agree, forests are the best surroundings :-)
But I only did not understand how I should have guessed the place of this fungus.

Re : Schizoxylon sp.
You know that I only operate in the Knyszy?ska Forest. I don't have much time now, so I don't leave home too far.
I meant the approximate location. If needed, it is exactly as I mentioned, 300 m E from Ogrodniczki, and it is a reclaimed former garbage dump.
Weedy, interesting area :)

o.k., I have sometimes problems to remember the collecting customs of 100 collectors :-)
