Discomycete on Typha
Chris Yeates,

Bonsoir tousthis is the first of two discomycetes I have just collected on Typha latifolia.
Apothecia whitish, with a slight pink tinge - all micro-features appear hyaline. Excipulum globose/prismatic at base, the cells becoming narrower towards the margin.
Asci 8-spored, IKI+, with croziers and most with a slightly pinched-out apex (see second micro photo).
Paraphyses unbranched(?), parallel-sided, widening at apex and with c3 septa along their length; without any discernible contents.
Ascospores elongate, with rounded apices and slightly tapering bases; many developing up to 3 septa while alive and in the ascus; (29.3)42.5-50.7 x 2.4-2.9µm.
help/suggestions very welcome
cordialement
Chris

Re : Discomycete on Typha
Hi Chris
It seems to be Belonopsis iridis. See my card in Ascofrance
Cheers
