Cosmospora coccinea Rabenh., [non Nectria coccinea (Pers.) Fr. 1849], syn.: Nectria cosmariospora Ces. & De Not.; anamorph Verticillium olivaceum W. GamsSlo.: krlatna bradavikaDat.: March 25. 2017Lat.: 46.37361 Long.: 13.79341Code: Bot_1043/2017_DSC7186Habitat: alpine Fagus sylvatica forest with some Picea abies; in shade, rather cool and humid place; locally almost flat terrain; calcareous, colluvial, stony ground; elevation 950 m, average temperature 5-7 deg C, average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: heavily decayed Poliporaceae (Phellinus punctatus and Inonotus nodulosus most common at this place) on fallen off, rotten branch of Fagus sylvaticaPlace: Zadnjica valley west of Mt. Triglav, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC.Comments: I found this ascomycete on heavily decayed pore layer of a Poliporaceae. Phellinus punctatus and Inonotus nodulosus seem most probable at this regions. First I thought I found Nectria peziza (since on polypore). However, spores proved to be too big and too tuberculate. Also perithecia seem pyriforme rather than globose and they apparently do not degrade to widely open 'peziza' type cups when old as I expected. Surprisingly I was unable to find asci? In the literature available to me I found no fit to this find. Thanks to the help obtained at AscoFrance (Ref.:1) the find was determined as Cosmospora coccinea. The fungus grows almost exclusively on Inonotus nodulosus decayed pore layer.Spores tuberculate.

It can be recognized by more or less round, but many times also confluent and irregular shape, (almost) black spots on rotting trunks and fallen branches of Fagus sylvatica. Spots are flat, not cushion like. Ostioles are rather small.Ref.:(1) J. Breitenbach, F. Kraenzlin, Eds., Fungi of Switzerland, Vol.1. Verlag Mykologia (1984), p 270. (2) R.

Comments: Biscogniauxia nummularia is a common fungus in beech and mixed woods of the Upper Soa River region. It can be recognized by more or less round, but many times also confluent and irregular shape, (almost) black spots on rotting trunks and fallen branches of Fagus sylvatica. Spots are flat, not cushion like. Ostioles are rather small and inconspicuous. Spots of this observation were from about 5 mm in diameter to 10 x 2.5 cm large patches and about 1 mm thick. Perithecia have in average 0.7 x 0.55 mm in diameter.Spores smooth, dark.
