Re : Hyaline asco on fir needles
What a nice fungus! I have nothing in my database on conifer needles with such a spore size.
The IKI reaction is hemiamyloid, not dextrinoid. After KOH you will get a blue reaction.
I have no idea about a genus. The paraphyses seem to exlude Allophylaria.

Re : Hyaline asco on fir needles
Thank you for the precision Zotto! Once again, a mysterious fungi. I will try to sequence it and keep you updated.
