Hairs rounded with granular surface and having crystals at the tip of many. Paraphyses lanceolate. Spores 7.5-9 x 2. Asci blued at the tip.
Is this Capitotricha bicolor?
Thanks

Re : Capitotricha bicolor?
Hi Mal
Yes, I would say so (as Lachnum bicolor). Was it on oak? I found the same thing a couple of weeks ago in Surrey, swarms of apothecia on small dead, attached branches of Quercus robur.
Best wishes

Re : Capitotricha bicolor?
Yes, surely. The fungus typically produces globose druses of crystals at the hairs, perhaps they are detached and I see only some small crystals.
