Stromata pale to bright yellow, 2A2–5, 3A2–7, when immature, yellow, brown-orange or golden-brown when mature, 4A3–4(–5), 5CD5–6. Stromata when dry 0.5–4(–10) × 0.5–2.5(–6) mm, (0.1–)0.2–0.3(–0.6) mm (n = 90) thick, effuse/effluent, discoid or flat A-1210477 pulvinate, broadly attached. Outline circular, oblong
or irregular. Margin free, sharp and projecting upwards, or rounded; sides mostly vertical, smooth or with slightly projecting perithecia on top. Surface smooth, finely tubercular due to convex dots, sometimes rugose; perithecia entirely immersed. Ostiolar dots (23–)30–60(–110) μm (n = 110) diam, numerous, distinct, circular, convex, brown with lighter shiny centres and minute hyaline perforations, distinctly darker than the yellow surface; in young stromata larger, more diffuse and more orange or reddish. IWR-1 manufacturer Stroma colour mainly determined by the brown ostiolar dots, yellow, 4A3–4(–6), when immature, yellow-brown, yellow-ochre, rust, brown-orange to brown, 5–6CE6–8,
less commonly light to greyish-orange, 6AB5–6, when mature, to dark brown, 7E7–8, when old. Spore deposits white to yellowish. Reaction of rehydrated stromata to 3% KOH variable, turning slightly darker brown or yellow-orange to nearly orange-red, reversible check details after drying; margin not projecting after rehydration. Subiculum white, pale grey, cream or yellowish, smooth, compact or farinose. Stroma anatomy: Ostioles (37–)45–60(–72) μm long, plane or projecting to 15(–22) μm, narrow, inner diam at apex (10–)12–19(–22) μm, outer diam at apex (20–)25–37(–45)
μm (n = 30); without differentiated apical cells. Perithecia (124–)150–200(–220) × (94–)100–164(–200) μm (n = 30), globose to flask-shaped; peridium (10–)12–16(–18) μm (n = 30) thick at the base, (5–)8–13(–17) μm (n = 30) at the sides, yellow, orange in KOH. Cortical layer (10–)14–22(–25) μm (n = 30) Org 27569 thick, a t. angularis of thin- to thick-walled cells (3–)4–10(–18) × (2.5–)3.5–6.5(–8) μm (n = 60) in face view and in vertical section, encasing the entire stroma except for the attachment area; pale yellow, turning orange-brown in KOH; no hairs but some projecting cylindrical hyaline cells to 15 × 2.5 μm sometimes present. Subcortical tissue a loose t. intricata of hyaline hyphae (2.0–)2.7–5.2(–7.2) μm (n = 60) wide. Subperithecial tissue a dense t. angularis to t. epidermoidea of thick-walled hyaline cells (5–)11–34(–48) × (3–)7–13(–16) μm (n = 30), penetrated by some wide thick-walled hyphae; cells smaller in the lower and lateral regions of the stroma, at the base emanating hyaline to yellowish hyphae (2–)3–6(–7.5) μm (n = 60) wide, penetrating into bark.
