Hello my friends
Please read the attached pdf and many thanks again
Otidea-0001.pdfHi Enrique,
Interesting find! I think you are right, it is either O. nannfeldtii or O. formicarum, not always easy to separate. I am more inclined to think that it is O. formicarum (not always associated with anthills), because of the slightly longer and broader spores compared to O. nannfeldtii. The apothecial colours would be typical, but the apothecia are often more broadly ear-shaped.
As far as I know there are no previous reports in the Iberian Peninsula.
Cheers,
Ibai.
Many thanks Ibai. Of course, If it is needed I have material for you.
Enrique
