Lachnum with crystal heads on hairs

Andreas Gminder, 13-08-2015 21:07

Hello,

a Lachnum from today with crystal druses on the hairs (easily washed apart in the preparation), from Tilia platyphylla.

I found no match in Zottos key, as there are no Lachnum with crystals on wood, and the spores are to big for L. clavigerum anyway.

Spores 10-12 x 2,2 µm
Asci with croziers
Paraphyses lanceolate, approx. 5 µm broad, approx. 5-10 µm protruding.
And there were some elements, which I don't know wether they are hairs are whatever, which have a refractive vacuolar body in the upper part.

Anyone an idea?

thank you and best regards,

Andreas
