Moved over to the fediverse today. Lets see if this works here ๐Ÿ™‚

For my introduction a picture I took yesterday of Scuttelina sp. through the stereo microscope. The genus seems to be "complicated", but as soon as I can get my hands on my compound microscope I'm hopeful that I can identify the species.

What microscopic features would you use to determine the specific species?

@Sal hair size, ascus length and spore size/ornamentation mostly
