Inhabitant of Carex rostrata leaves in bog.
Apothecia immersed, circular to short-ellipsoid, 140 - 250 mk, opening by ellipsoid lid (rarely by irregular patches), disc pale yellowish-brownish, surrounded more or less conspicuous brown edge.
Excipulum from textura angularis, cells with thickened walls, brown, about 10 mk in diam at base and flanks, more prismatic (10 x 5) to the edge, end row of cells (hairs) cylindrical, two-celled, to 25 x 5, tips obtuse, smooth; asci clavate, clamped, inamyloid, 58,7-66,6 x 14-17,5; paraphyses cylindrical with enlarged clavate brownish end segment, lower part segmented, about 3 mk broad, with outgrowths or branched, upper segment enlarged to 5 mk, with yellowish-brown content, rare with incrustation, exeeding the asci for about 10-15 mk, embedded in gelatinose substance; spores fosoid, some curved, some with obtuse end, many-guttulate, 25 (22,1-29) x 4,5 (3,8-4,8) (Q=5,6; N=13).

Re : Hysteronaevia olivacea
Could you please check the iodine reaction here also after KOH?
The Hysteronaevias that I know have much broader or longer spores.

Re : Hysteronaevia olivacea
Yes, spores described as "narrowly oblong" by Nannfeldt, and pictured in Defago (1967) and Scheuer (1988) with more obtuse ends then in my specimen. I checked several frbs, all they had this fusoid shape. But other features quite similar, and host (Carex rostrata) often reported for H. olivacea. I will see if it shows up in other collections and what spores shape will there.
Asci inamyloid (in lugol, then after KOh and heat). There picture in lugol.

Re : Hysteronaevia olivacea
I looked only in Defago, she says spores 18-26 x 5-6 µm for H. olivacea (probably dead state).
The living spores in HB 4138b are 5.5-6 µm, and those by Enrique start6 with 6 µm upwards.
The spore ends are acute in both finds.
Helpful could be the spore contents in your specimens (vital state), but I suppose they are not alive anymore.

Re : Hysteronaevia olivacea
Yes, surely in KOH :-(

Re : Hysteronaevia olivacea
Yes, because "oil is lumped together in one or two guttules?" (Stip wrote). So, i hope it will found more in summer.
