Arcyria stipata
Overview
Sporocarps crowded, stalked, 1.5-3 mm total height, erect or ± superimposed and then subsessile or sessile and often forming a pseudoaethalium, copper-coloured or reddish in the fresh state, metallic, often with lavender or rose tints, browning with age. Hypothallus dark brown, confluent. Stalk 0.1-1.5 mm tall, dark brown. Peridium, in separate sporothecae, evanescent above and leaving a shallow calyculus, persistent in pseudoaethaliate forms and then splitting into lobes. Capillitium attached at the base, somewhat elastic, forming a loose net, with bulbous thickenings and numerous free ends, the upper part often breaking away with the peridium, the tubules 3-5 µm diam., bearing 3-4 spirals, these ± intermixed with spines, cogs, half-rings or occasional rings and reticulations. Spores pallid, 6-8 µm diam. Plasmodium yellow.
