The spore-bearing cells, the asci, are 350--400 by 15--20 µm; the paraphyses are club-shaped, have a pale brown color, with apexes that are up to 10 µm thick.
The spore-bearing cells, the asci, are 350--400 by 15--20 µm, are operculate--meaning they have an apical "lid" that releases the spores. The paraphyses are club-shaped, and have a pale brown color, with apexes that are up to 10 µm thick.
