A polyphasic taxonomy of Daldinia (Xylariaceae)

this is most likely D. petriniae, at least a member of the complex of closely related species. I was not aware it occured as early as mid June at ascigerous state.
D. vernicosa has a gelatinous interior that turns hollow and differently shaped and darker ascospores.

Jacques
Thank you very much
