Growing on the partially buried roots of a decorticated hardwood stump -- likely oak. Perithecia with amyloid tips. Spores brown and smooth, with germ slits on average around 0.44% of the lengths of the spores (measurement from 13 spores). Germ slits relatively straight. Spore measurements from Piximetre: (20.4) 21.6 - 25.3 (27.7) Ã- (6.1) 6.4 - 7.6 (8.1) µm, Q = (2.9) 3.1 - 3.6 (3.8); N = 30, Me = 23.9 Ã- 7.1 µm; Qe = 3.4 Individual spores: 21.07 x 7.15 µm, 27.71 x 7.80 µm, 24.74 x 8.14 µm, 24.25 x 7.37 µm, 24.72 x 6.80 µm, 24.65 x 7.43 µm, 23.99 x 6.77 µm, 24.66 x 7.13 µm, 23.66 x 7.51 µm, 22.34 x 6.71 µm, 21.63 x 6.94 µm, 24.81 x 7.30 µm, 20.76 x 7.27 µm, 20.37 x 6.36 µm, 23.65 x 7.56 µm, 23.10 x 6.37 µm, 22.28 x 6.29 µm, 23.47 x 6.14 µm, 25.80 x 6.95 µm, 24.30 x 7.02 µm, 23.64 x 7.24 µm, 26.58 x 7.49 µm, 24.21 x 7.54 µm, 25.14 x 7.75 µm, 24.07 x 7.57 µm, 25.29 x 6.59 µm, 23.98 x 6.63 µm, 24.78 x 7.35 µm, 23.45 x 6.86 µm, 23.85 x 6.86 µm
