Abstract

A few Peziza species have multiguttulate ascospores. Our study of several collections made during the year 2015 allows us to improve our knowledge of these species morphologically and phylogenetically, especially P. retrocurvata. A new species, morphologically close to P. retrocurvata, is also described and illustrated under the name P. retrocurvatoides. Finally, our examination of the type collection of P. brunneoatra proved this to be a distinct species.

Notes

  1. Chadefaud (1943) and Berthet (1964: 99) make a distinction between two types of ascogeneous hyphae which produce no croziers, the acrorhynchous type and the aporhynchous type. It is not possible to distinguish them without staining the nuclei. In general, we must consider that the term aporhynchous is only used to specify the absence of croziers.
