Lamprospora seaveri vs Lamprospora miniata?

Good evening everyone,on 10/02/24 I found a Lamprospora in the dune area Krakeelduinen in De Panne, Belgium.
The species is abundant there.
At the moment I'm not yet sure whether it could be L. seaveri or L. miniata.
The stumbling block is the interpretation of the reticulum.
Someone who can help me further?
Spores cannot be called 100% spherical:
* Av(25) in H2O: (18.29)16.12(14.11) x (18.19)15.90(13.56)
* Qav(25) = 1.02
* Qav(6) reticulum ribs = 0.54
Thanks for your help and suggestions!

Re : Lamprospora seaveri vs Lamprospora miniata?
Hello William,
your collection fits well with Lamprospora seaveri s.str., host should be the nearby Ceratodon purpureus and the ornamentation is also typical. Lamprospora miniata would have a bit more regular reticulum with differently shaped meshes as well as a different host, see e.g. here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/W3JRJ18ttYSvTtmq5
There are however plenty of undescribed (as well as some described) taxa with seaveri as well as miniata type ornamentation, so the identification can be often a bit more complicated and might require looking for the infection apparatus on the nearby mosses as most of these species are host specific.
