Summary[edit]

Description

Collemopsidium Nyl.

Image location: Lummi Island, Whatcom Co., Washington, USA

Superficial on intertidal Si rock with barnacles. (Sometimes grows up onto the barnacles from the rock.) Of the 3 marine Collemopsidium species on the North American checklist (also considering the species in Smith et al.) the most possible would be C. halodytes, but this seems very distinctive. No photos which I can find online resemble this.

I would appreciate suggestions on this one.

Based on microscopic features: thallus up to 0.4mm thick with “hills and valleys” and grazed upon in places, average photobiont cells ca. 15×10u (quite variable), color cyanobacteria-like rather than green algae-like, arranged in columns; few perithecia (note involucrellum, paraphyses, etc in photo) 370u diameter; spores 1-septate, ca. 15×6u, appear to be up to 8 per ascus; very many pycnidia(?), constricted at base and smaller than perithecia
