Dear Forum,On dead leaves of Ammophila arenaria I found some very small yellow-green discs (100-125µ) with a strong amyloid reaction on IKI. Asci measured 30x12µ and the hyaline spores were 1-septate and contained several small guttules. The paraphyses were multiple septate and capitate.
Any ideas?
Many thanks
Marc
Likely a species of the genus Lecania (Ramalinaceae, Lecanorales)

Another colleague has found it in Argyll Scotland also on Ammophila.

My notes and pics were sent to Brian Coppins, Senior Lichenologist at Edinburg Royal Botanic Gardens. His response was -
Yes, I'd be happy to call this Lecania cyrtella. There are several otherwise mainly corticolous lichens that can find their way onto grasses, esp. Bacidina species. They need a keen eye to spot and happenchance of being in the right place at the right time and in decent weather conditions to be able to 'screen' such a habitat. Also, being aware that such a habitat niche can exist!
