This Sarcoscypha was on a branch balanced over a stream. I managed to fall in the stream so I didn't stop to identify the tree.The spores at first said S coccinea but the hairs were definitely S austriaca. Many more spores from a drop show the notch associated with S austriaca.
Do any spores of S coccinea have a notch or should they all be rounded at the ends?
Thanks Mal

Re : Sarcoscypha
This is clearly S. austriaca. S. coccinea does not have the notch.
The wood can hardly be identified in the field, especially when it is debarked.
You can keep a portion in a moist box to obtain the characteristic anamorph on germinating ascospores.

Re : Sarcoscypha
Hi Malcolm,
in my opinion is this S. austriaca, see the link.
Greetings Peter.

Re : Sarcoscypha
Thanks both.
I felt sure it was S austriaca but was thrown by the large number of rounded spores in the first examination.

Re : Sarcoscypha
Since the spore ends are saddle-shaped, the saddle is only visible in some of them, depending on how the spores are oriented..
