Taxonomic name:
Rinodina pityrea
Description:
Rinodina pityrea, hymenium after heating in water. Heating has 'cleared' the cells revealing the thickened walls at the apices. The important outer spore wall layer is not easily seen in all ascospores and is scarecely discernable in any of the spores shown here. It is often necessary to examine a number of spores, or sections from a number of apothecia before some spores are found in which the outer wall layer can be confidently interpreted.
