Ostiole 30-36 μm wide, lined with polygonal, hyaline to pale brown cells, lacking periphyses. Peridium laterally 30-40 μm thick, composed of an inner layer of pale to dark brown, polygonal cells becoming thicker and darker towards the neck, the base thinner with 6-14 μm thicker cells, which are hyaline, compressed and thin-walled. Asci narrowly clavate, stipitate 80-100 × 12-14 μm, stalk 20-32 μm long, bitunicate, basal, 8-spored. Pseudoparaphyses narrowly cellular, 2-3 μm wide. Ascospores broadly fusiform, 15-19 × 5-6 μm, rounded at the ends, at first hyaline with the first septum forming in the middle, later becoming pale brown to reddish brown and 3-septate, constricted at the septa, second cell enlarged, verrucose, with a mucilaginous sheath surrounding the ascospores. |
