Hi All,
Here is an Octospora which occurred in abundance amongst Bryum and other mosses on quite compacted coastal sand on Anglesey. The apothecia are up to about 3mm. Ascopores are 16.5-18x12.5-14, verrucose with well-spaced warts. The warts are about 0.5 high and wide. Paraphyses are often curved and swollen to 6. Octospora melina seems a reasonable fit unless there are other taxa out there that I'm unaware of.
Best wishes,
Charles.
looks good in my opinion. but i think the current name is o. similis!

Hi Dirk,
Many thanks. That would explain why I couldn't find the name on the Octospora website.
