Taxonomic Literature: Taxonomic notes: +ascocarp outer wall cells obcscure, irregularly polygonal to rounded, ca. 8-20 µm diam.;Morphologically agreeing with var. mayorii, but asci 4-7-spored. Braun U., Beih. Nova Hedwigia 89: 1-700 [179-181] (1987).

Biogeography: Continent: Asia-Temperate. Region(s): Far Eastern Asia. Country or state(s): Japan.

Ascocarps: Cleistothecioid, orbicular, forming independently from the host thallus or mycelium, scattered or gregarious, .085-.15 mm in diam.. Margin: External filaments present (usually shorter than the cleistothecial diam.); interwoven with surrounding mycelium, mycelioid, straight, 3.5-6.5 µm in diameter, hyaline (at first, later yellowish to brown) or pigmented, numerous, growing all across the lower half of the ascocarp, smooth or rough, thin, not ramified or ramified, often irregular, septate.
