03D587E8FFC1FFD0FF10EEF08CE81175.taxon	description	Description: — Stroma substratal, visible on surface of substrate as clear, irregular, black lines delimiting blackened zones. Apothecia stipitate, occurring on decaying leaves and petioles; disc flat when fresh, becoming discoid to cupulate when dry, 0.5 – 1.6 mm in diameter in dried specimen; hymenium dark gray to beige (warm gray 3 C = R 199 G 194 B 186) when fresh, becoming dark yellow to brown (4745 PC = C 4 M 20 Y 22 K 12) when dry; receptacle hairy, slightly paler than hymenium when fresh, becoming light brown when dry; stipe concolorous with the receptacle, 0.5 – 2 mm long when dry, with hairy surface. Ectal excipulum two layered: outer layer textura prismatica, composed of thin-walled, brick-shaped cells 15 – 40 × 6 – 13 µm in the middle flanks and 6 – 15 × 5 – 10 µm at the margin, with granulate or smooth surface, sometimes becoming pale brown towards the margin; inner layer composed of thin-walled, subhyaline to pale brown, granulate or smooth, hypha of ca. 5 µm wide. Hairs arising from the outermost layers of the ectal excipulum, cylindrical, septate, 17 – 60 µm long, mostly hyaline, occasionally expanded up to 4 – 8 µm at the apex. Medullary excipulum textura intricata, composed of hyaline, smooth, loosely interwoven hyphae 3 – 5 µm wide. Asci 81 – 145 × 6 – 9.5 µm (109.7 ± 18.5 × 7.2 ± 0.9 µm on average ± SD, n = 20), clavate, 8 - spored, arising from simple septa; apex rounded, some slightly truncate, 2 – 4 µm thick; pore never stained by Melzer’s reagent with or without 3 % KOH pretreatment; both pigmented and colorless ascospores can be seen in the same ascus, most asci collapsing when all the ascospores have become pigmented. Ascospores 14 – 22 × 3 – 4.5 µm (18 ± 2 × 3.5 ± 0.5 µm on average ± SD, n = 30), irregularly biseriate or biseriate above and uniseriate below, elongateelliptic to fusoid, non-septate; at first hyaline then changing to pale brown, finally becoming yellow-brown to golden-brown within the ascus; hyaline spores smooth, 1 – multi guttulate; pale brown spores 1 – 3 guttulate, remaining smooth or becoming somewhat granulate; brown spores eguttulate, with coarsely granulate surface, some with one side banded. Paraphyses straight, septate, hyaline, simple or branched near the base, expanded at the apex up to 2 – 5 µm wide. Germination of ascospores on PDA: germinated spores becoming paler colored to hyaline, expanded at the middle, 7 – 14 µm in width, aseptate, ends pointed. Cultural characteristics: Growth on PDA slow, attaining a diameter of 50 mm in 14 d at 20 ° C, surface floccose, whitish to pale brown (4755 PC = C 3 M 14 Y 16 K 7), becoming darker with age. Aerial mycelium white, becoming brown with age, not well developed, forming short mycelial strands. Rind becoming distinct in prolonged incubation up to 1 month. The rind delimiting irregular portions of the agar, composed of a single layer of cells with walls pigmented to a various extent, epidermoid in face view.	en	Zhao, Yan-Jie, Hosoya, Tsuyoshi, Shirouzu, Takashi, Kakishima, Makoto, Yamaoka, Yuichi (2013): Lambertella pyrolae (Rutstroemiaceae, Ascomycota), a new species from Japan.
