Descriptions
Dennis (1961) cites a specimen (Berggren 6) from Waitaki, New Zealand, (described as a nomen nudum by Cooke as Geoglossum glabrum which the ascospores are uniformly seven-septate. We have not been able to locate this material and no further description of the fungus is provided, but it is likely either Glutinoglossum australasicum or Glutinoglossum exiguum.
Glutinoglossum exiguum Hustad & A.N. Mill. 2015
Comments: This species is morphologically similar to careful morphological examination is capable of differentiating between the two species. G. australasicum has a generally larger ascocarp and is found in greater abundance. G. exiguum has distinctly pyriform-globose inflated paraphyses tips that are conspicuous in fresh material with a hand lens. Ascospores sizes of the two species largely overlap, but the ascospores in G. australasicum are slightly longer and wider.
