Hola a todos.
Subo unas fotos de una Rutstroemia? que encontré ayer sobre ramitas sin identificar, en bosque mixto de F sylvatica-Q pyrenaica, entre otros.
Esporas de 20-23 x 5,3-6,2 micras.
Ascas amiloides, pleurorrincas.
¿Qué les parece?
Gracias por su ayuda.
Rubén

Re : Rutstroemia? sobre madera
Great! Rutstroemia for sure, but I do not remember such with navicular spores.
Quercus and Fagus you should be able to distinguish with the wood pores (ring-pored or not). Did you look at a broken twig?

Re : Rutstroemia? sobre madera
You are right, Martin, my impression was that the spore ends are acute, but they are rather obtuse.
The strange thing is that R. firma usually has curved spores, but I saw also populations with straight spores. These here are completely straight. I wonder if this is all the same.
R. firma was also mixed with R. alnobetulae in earlier times, who knows how many taxa exist.
I suspect that DNA would help....

Re : Rutstroemia? sobre madera
The spores in Rubén's collection seem to have a sheath (fig. 6). Is this confirmed for R. firma?

Re : Rutstroemia? sobre madera
Such sheath has almost every Sclerotiniaceae and Rutstroemiaceae, and not only.
