Lamprospora/Octospora/Byssonectria

 

This 'species' is a place for those small, orange, disk-like or cup-like fungi where there is a frilly or toothed margin around the rim of the disk or cup.

 

The genera Lamprospora and Octospora are macroscopically similar, with frruitbodies often no more than 5 millimetres in diameter (though in some Octospora species they  may reach a centimetre or so). Identification of species requires a look at some microscopic features and even  distinguishing Lamprospora from Octospora will often need a microscope.
