Today I found this Helvella but I not certain to which species it belongs; Is it a variety of H. crispa or of H. lacunosa?
I intend to do the microscopy, but that is not possible now.
Thanks in advance,
Nice Christmas time for all,

Re : Helvella nonstandard

Re : Helvella nonstandard
Thanks, Nicolas, for your prompt reply.
As far as I could see it was first considered as Helvella crispa var. pithyophila.
Is there any micro feature that serves to characterize it?
Best regards from Portugal,

Re : Helvella nonstandard
The microscopic characters are not really useful for separating H. crispa from H. pithyophila, but the grey colour of the stipe and the ridges are typical. H. pithyophila grows commonly under or close to Pinus trees.

Re : Helvella nonstandard
Thanks, Nicolas.
It will be placed in the long list of thinks to observe under the scope.
These Helvella lived on the side of a road in an habitat dominated by QUercus tree. But that means nothing, since these kind of habitats Have pine tree scatered among Quercus suber and other oaks.
