Saccobolus glaber?
Maria Plekkenpol, 11-10-2024 13:39
Hello, these were on dung of wild horse. Apothecium smaller than 1 mm, young darker yellowish (mature black looking). Spores with coarse reticulation, ellipsoid-fusiform, 27-29 x 13-15 µ. Total of the 8 spores 77 x 28,5. Asci 173 x 35,5, 8-spored. Material was very mucilagious. I have not seen paraphyses. Excipulum textura (sub)globulosa. IKI +.
Could it be anything else than S. glaber?
Thanks in advance for your help, Maria

Good evening Maria.

A.glaber corresponds well to your mushroom; there is A.diffusus which resembles it, but whose asci and spores are smaller.

Re : Saccobolus glaber?
Good evening to you too Michel, and thank you very much for your answer and help!
You call it 'A. glaber' and 'A. diffusus'. I am a bit confused now: do you mean Ascobolus?

I had never heard of A. or S. diffusus and what I found after your comparison was an article of coprophilous ascomycetes in Kenya (and India too????). I saw that the size of asci and spores were smaller there, but (as I said) I had never heard or seen this species mentioned before.

Very interesting, but with your confirmation I will name this find S. glaber, unless it should be A. glaber :) 
Again, thanks!
Greetings, Maria

Excuse me, I was careless! It is indeed the Saccobolus genus of course!

Michel.
