| 11. | In time, the peridium dries and falls off in flakes to expose the underlying gleba.
|
| 12. | In these species, the peridium comprises hyaline, branched, septate hyphae with clamp connections.
|
| 13. | If the outer peridium opens when wet and closes when dry, it is described as hygroscopic.
|
| 14. | The network of fertile tissue inside the inner peridium, the capillitium, arises from the columella.
|
| 15. | It shares features such as peridium structure, ascospore morphology and germ pore position with its cogenerates.
|
| 16. | At maturity, the peridium opens up and remains as a volva at the base of the receptaculum.
|
| 17. | These pegs put pressure on the outer peridium of the host bark, which exposes the pycnidia below.
|
| 18. | The outer tissue layer, or peridium, is white to pale, smooth, firm-membranous.
|
| 19. | The columella is a column-like clump of sterile tissue to be found inside the inner peridium.
|
| 20. | The inner peridium is a thin shiny tissue that is depressed into areas demarcated by the pyramidal plates.
