Ascocoryne anomorph

I have found photos of the anomorph of A solitaria which look very similar but I cannot find photos of the anomorph of A cylichnium. Is it likely to be one of these?
Thanks

Re : Ascocoryne anomorph
A. cylichnium does not have an anamorph. This one could also be that of A. solitaria. With the microscope the two anamorphs can be distinguished: Phialides narrow vs. globose.

Thanks. The Phialides look swollen rather than globose but definitely not narrow. I cannot show because my camera is playing up at the moment. Which species does that suggest?

Re : Ascocoryne anomorph
Ascocoryne solitaria (anamorph Coryne albida).
The swollen phialides are not always globose, also elipsoid/fusoid, but they commonly contain a large crystal in the living cytoplasm.

Re : Ascocoryne anomorph
Yes, this is Coryne albida.
Only the conidiogenous cells are not alive as it seems, therefore the crystal not visible.

Re : Ascocoryne anomorph
Gracias por todo Zotto.
No he podido observar el cristal, la recolecta la hice hace ya más de 15 días y los tenía ya secos cuando tomé la muestra.
En próximos encuentros intentaré ver los cristales.
Un saludo y gracias.
