Hi!
I would appreciate very much if somebody knowledgeable could confirm or correct my (rather ignorant) determination of the following observation. Could it be something different than Lachnellula splendens?
Date.: Nov. 10. 2013
Habitat: alpine valley, mixed forest edge, dominant Fagus sylvatica, Picea abies, Ostrya carprinifolia, Fraxinus ornus, Fraxinus excelsior, Corylus avellana, modestly southeast inclined mountain slope, calcareous ground (overgrown old limestone scree, rock and boulders), limestone bedrock, relatively dry and warm place, partly sunny, exposed to direct rain, average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 600 m (1.950 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: dead, thin, very small piece of Picea abies branch loosely lying on rocky ground.
Place: Lat.: 46.36021 Long.: 13.70228, Lower Trenta valley, near 'Na Melu' place, between villages So?a and Trenta, East Julian Alps, Poso?je, Slovenia EC
Pileus diameter 1.2 (SD = 0.3) mm, n = 4. Hairs: length 117 (SD = 23) ?, n = 6. Spores smooth with many small oil drops. Dimensions: 28.9 (SD = 2.3) x 6.4 (SD = 0.5) ?, Q = 4.53 (SD = 0.5), n = 30. Asci dimensions: 145.6 (SD = 11.8) x 15.2 (SD = 1.6) ?, n = 12, with thin apical thickening. Paraphyses width: 1.9 (SD = 0.2) ? (minimum) and 4.7 (SD = 0.5) ? (at the apex), n = 12.
Many thanks in advance
Amadej
with this spore size and shape, and this host I don't know an alternative species.
Best regards
