Lindbladia cribrarioides (Emoto) M.L. Farr & Alexop. FIGURE 3 .

Mycobank No.: 104462

Description: Sporocarps crowded in a cluster, cylindrical, 0.3‒0.5×1.6‒3.0 mm, stipitate, erect, rarely sessile, brown or blackish-brown, stalk about 0.3 mm in high, inter sporangial peridium fused but not perforated, with plasmatic granules inside, dark-brown or yellowish-brown. Peridium membranous, thin, with longitudinal striation on the wall outside, roughened at the upper margin, apically composed of striation between sporangia and sporangia forming a peridial reticulation, polygonal, lax, irregular, with large mesh. Hypothallus membranous, round, reddish to dark brown. Spores ochre to brown in mass, yellowish to colorless by transmitted light, 5‒6 μm in diameter, spherical, with verrucose on the surface, some verrucose connected in ridges. Plasmodium unknown.
