Pezicula on the bark of Metasequoia glyptostroboides?
Mirek Gryc,

Pezicula fruiting bodies have been growing on the bark for several years in my yard, on Metasequoia glyptostroboides.
I am not able to define the genre myself and it seems quite interesting.
Original substrate that I have not found in the literature and very small fruiting bodies not similar to others known to me.
Now the fruiting bodies are still very poorly mature, but I decided to present the collection, hoping that they might be of interest to someone. I have the material to collect at my fingertips, so it won't be a problem.
Or maybe someone knows something about species on this type of substrate?
best regards

Maybe Pezizcula livida

Hi Enrique.
Do you mean:
Pezicula livida = Pezicula eucrita?

Pezicula eucrita is a 4-spored fungus livida-like.

Thank you!
I probably have outdated data.

Yes, P. livida is a good option, though apos are very small.

Hi Zotto.
I can see that the small dimensions of apos, not only puzzled me :)
I have not measured them before, but they certainly do not exceed 0.4mm.
I am posting a few more photos from 2017, more mature ascocarps.
Thank you and best regards.

Re : Pezicula on the bark of Metasequoia glyptostroboides?
On conifers are only a few species, and I see no reason to assume here something else than P. cinnamomea. That overmature spores get septate and a bit rough and slightly tinged is normal in Pezicula.
