Vitus SchäfftleinHello, I found Trochila ilicina on Ilex aquifoliu
Because the mushroom seems to be very interesting, let me post a link to the Polish forum;
https://www.bio-forum.pl/messages/33/1348496.html
Ectal excipulum texture seems very interesting and characteristic, I have never seen one?
We can't find a name for this species so I am asking for help.
Regards
Mirek
I think the last photos in IKI show amyloid asci (type W or WT). A Peziza (sensu lato)?
Viktorie
I took into account Peziza but I don't know any Peziza with such a texture, so I decided on Smardaea.
The blue reaction only occurred after using the sample in KOH.
When using Iki himself, a colleague was unable to assess amyloidality.
The spores, though a little too narrow, fit the best with P. retrocurvatoides or P. brunneoatra. However, the other features are different.
Thank you and best regards
Mirek
Thank you for your comments and determining the direction where we are to look for answers.
A moment ago I talked to a friend and we came to a similar conclusion. For the sake of a bad state of ascomata, we have to wait until the next year, maybe they will appear again?
Regards
Mirek
