Hello,
Found by Laurens van der Linde, november 2020, The Netherlands, on needle of Pinus sylvestris.
Is this Lachnum pulverulentum?
Spore sizes larger than mentioned in Ellis & Ellis.
(Also found the names Lachnellula pulverulenta, Dasyscyphus pulverulentus and Dasyscyphella pulverulenta.)
Spores sizes: (4.9-)5.6-7.7(-7.9) x (2-)2.1-2.3(-2.5) µm, Me: 6.7 x 2.2 µm, N = 10
Asci J+
Greetings, Riet

Re : Lachnum pulverulentum
I found this species a few times this spring. Your spores are a bit wider compared to my measurements, but over all in my opinion this fits well.

Re : Lachnum pulverulentum
it should be noted that this species was transferred to Lachnellula 10 years ago, and although I am quite surprized, the molecular data clearly prove this. But there are only two Japanese samples in GenBank. My transfer to Dasyscyphella might be questionable.
