Dear Ascofrance, I need your help. I found this Melastiza sp. in Tarvisio Italy, not far from a riverbank, next to a pile of gravel accumulated due to construction work, I found these brick-colored apothecia. Their size is 2-4 mm. A few centimeters away, a bryophilous species also appeared on the pioneer mosses in the same area. I don't know if there have been any previous instances of fires in the area, but it cannot be ruled out. The majority of spores measure 18-19 um in length (excluding ornament), but there are also larger spores measuring 21-22 um in length. At the junction of the networks, pustules can be found. What Melastiza species does have so large spores? Am I on the wrong track?Link to photos here: https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=kZw4wuZ9hJErKcVaFkupsGU42BcjVFOILDk
