Coccomyces delta

A minute ascomycete barely reaching 1 mm in diameter, fruiting on and decomposing fallen leaves of laurel (Laurus spp.). Apothecia are pyramidal, splitting into three triangular lobes upon maturing (occasionally four-sided). The exposed hymenium inside displays brownish tones.

Collected in April in Sukarrieta (Bizkaia), where it was observed in large numbers on old semidecayed leaves of Laurus nobilis.
