BiostatusPresent in region - Indigenous. Non endemic
Article: Dennis, R.W.G. (1961). Some inoperculate Discomycetes from New Zealand. Kew Bulletin 15(2): 293-320.
Notes: The type-collection was on leaves of Persea lingue (Lauraceae), Valdivia, Chile. The species
is very near H. caudatum (Karst.) Vel. (1934), recorded on dead leaves of a wide range of
Dicotyledonous trees and shrubs in Europe and North America. In the Chilean and New
Zealand collections, however, there are from 4 to 6 well-developed guttules in the spores,
which measure 18-22 x 4-5.5 µ, whereas European material has spores containing scattered
granules as described by Karsten 'eguttulatae vel guttulis paucis praeditae'.

Description: Spores 7-10 x 2-2.5 µ.
Notes: SERIES 6. Cupreum. Stipitate tropical or South temperate species on woody substrata, with
excipulum of parallel hyphae, asci mostly I+ and small rod-like spores
