Trichodelitschia

Trichodelitschia is a genus of fungi in the family Hyaloscyphaceae. The genus contains a single species, Trichodelitschia bisporula, which was first described scientifically in 1931 by mycologist John Axel Nannfeldt.

Taxonomy

The genus Trichodelitschia was first described in 1931 by Swedish mycologist John Axel Nannfeldt. The genus name combines the Greek words trichos (hair) and delitschia, a genus of fungi in the same family. The specific epithet bisporula refers to the two-spored asci that characterize the species.

Description

Trichodelitschia bisporula is characterized by its small, hair-like fruit bodies that grow on decaying wood. The fruit bodies are cylindrical and taper to a point at the top. They are covered in a layer of fine, white hairs. The ascospores are elliptical and measure 7–9 by 4–5 micrometres.

Habitat and distribution

Trichodelitschia bisporula is a saprophytic fungus, meaning it obtains its nutrients from decaying organic matter. It is commonly found on decaying wood in forested areas. The species has a wide distribution and has been reported from various locations in Europe, North America, and Asia.
