Click to collapse Descriptions Info

Apothecia subgregaria, sessilia, ochracea, cupula planiuscula, pallida, 5 mm. lata, excipulo prosenchymatico. Asci anguste clavati, octospori, 170 x 8-9 µ, obturaculo jodo coerulescente; ascosporae monostichae, fusoideae, biguttulatae, hyalinae, 13-15 x 5.5-6 µ; paraphyses copiosissimae, filiformes, sursum levissime incrassatae, crassit. 2 µ.
The excipulum is composed of hyaline hyphae lying almost parallel to the surface. This collection seems to belong to the same species as one from Mt. Field, Tasmania, which Rodway referred to his Cenangium recurvum but which differs from the type of his fungus in its larger asci and ascospores and in its prosenchymatous excipulum.
Supra virgultra putrida locis umbrosis, Orwel Creek, Ahaura Westland, 26.4.1956, Dingley 19036 (typus).
[Notes from Kew Type specimen, PRJ 2010] Small, pale, sessile disc on soil and litter
