This one was found on cow dung. Fruitbody is white with violet coloured ripe asci on top.No direct colouring blue for the asci in Melzer, there is some blue blue colouring in the body (photo-3). Asci colour yellow.
No picture has been taken of the asci for measurement.
I could not find any match in Fungi Fimicoli Italici

Re : Ascobolus or iodophanus?
Surely an Ascobolus. Spores in Iodophanus are never brown. ?

Re : Ascobolus or iodophanus?
Hello Joop.
t is not I think of Iodophanus as said Richard can be a Saccobolus. It would take a photo of several asci to see the precise positioning of spores so as to confirm the gender.?

Re : Ascobolus or iodophanus?
Sorry Michel I only had one fruitbody next time I find one I will provide you with more information.
But with this information I cannot find a match for spore size in Ascobolus or Saccobolus.
Thanks for the reply.
Joop

Bonjour Joop,
a-tu déjà pensé à Ascobolus hawaiiensis ? Voir literature Van Brummelen ( Persoonia- supplement Vol I page 87-88) et Doveri (Fungi fimicoli Italici)page 402-404.

Re : Ascobolus or iodophanus?
Hello Jacky,
I Have been reading both documentations and A. Hawaiiensis spores (when not fully mature) do match described range.
With the second finding I measured the size of asci and spores again.
Spores are at first hyaline and wrats are later developing, in this stage measuring 18.87-21.25x8.93-10.62 um. No gelatinous sheath observed.
Asco measuring 175.5x32.02 um
When mature spores measure 22-27.27x10.64-12.21 um colouring light brown and fully covered with rounded wrats measuring 0.84x0.84 um.
Wrats can only be measured at both ends of the spores

Joop,
I see not other possibiltis with the sources I have. For me A. hawaiensis

Re : Ascobolus or iodophanus?
D'accord avec toi Jacky, il s'agit certainement d'Ascobolus hawaiiensis.
