Vitus SchäfftleinHello, I found Trochila ilicina on Ilex aquifoliu
I found this Poronia in cow dung, have a large sclerotia between the dung and soil, first have a conical cap but later is flat with peritecias in the upper surface. May be any can help in the species.
a long stalked species of Poronia is P. oedipus.
it is recorded from Panama: http://www.pnwfungi.org/pdf_files/manuscripts_volume_4/naf20093.pdf?

Martin
However, here is the protologue of P. oedipus by Montagne (1840) attached.

And see:Mycol. Res. 104 (12). 2000. Pag. 1417.

Poronia oedipus (Mont.) Mont is smaller and has no bulb.
We have received a record from Panama Mrs Piepenbring.

Saludos.
of course I also know that for the determination of the type many factors are important. However, there are to my knowledge only such a great kind to manure, which I would describe as Poronia pileiformis . You got yourself but Xylaria (Acta Botanica Mexicana 42, 1998) called. Do you now have a another opinion?
Peter
I attach the description by Montagne on Poronia oedipus (little more extended as in the protologue) as he gave it in de la Sagras volumes on the natural history of Cuba (for quotation I add the title too). I only have a poor copy of the figures to it. (who has a higher resolution copy of the "Atlas" ?). This one is from the New York Public Library site: http://tiny.cc/pxazlw?
My impression is that what he describes as the bulbous base of the stipe is merely the sclerotium. What do you think?

Martin
