In woodland at the Ponderosa Park, Sheffield, 4/8/11.
I was fairly confident that these were Xylaria polymorpha and not X. longipes from the stoutness and general appearance. But I've checked other mycologist's IDs on occasion, and found that what they ID-ed as X. polymorpha was X. longipes. It's easy to scrape a bit of the black surface with a Stanley knife blade onto a slide and look at the spores. X. polymorpha are clearly larger. Even in these specimens, with ascospores still transparent and immature, they measured over 20 microns (see inset, scale at 10 microns). X. longipes just go up to 16 or so.
It's interesting that all our records of X. longipes are from the past 4 years, whereas X. polymporpha was the only one recorded before this.
X. longipes is common on Sycamore in the Sorby area, we have 18 records for the past 4 years compared to 71 X. polymorpha over decades.
Either X. longipes is a recent species, or the X. polymorpha records include X. longipes as well.
These are abridged records

A day late posting for a rightful reason!
On Monday night I once again rigged the trap up on timer (early to bed for me at 9) and was quietly confident that I would get a pretty nice catch come the morning.
The conditions were perfect if a little breezy, but with a minimum of 16 degrees, a little rain sometime in the night I couldn't have asked for better.
Getting up bleary eyed and rubbing my eyes I could not believe it!
The trap was probably the fullest it has ever been in my 2 years of trapping here. Moths adorned most of the Perspex collar, and every hole of the egg boxes had at least one moth in it.
Macro Highlights were a second garden Small Ranunculus, new for garden Dingy Footman and Large Twin-spot Carpet and the trio Coxcomb, Maple and Pale Prominent.
Micros were headed by a first for me, the lovely marked Athrips mouffetella.
A slightly knackered Currant Pug which just would not lay flat and kept adorning a ‘Thorn-like’ posture… I didn’t record this species last year.
Also a worn Epinotia abbreviana after much identifying was a garden first.
All the moths were pretty lively for their photo-shoots, well apart from a very dozy Pale Prominent.
66 Macros and with only 10 less species of Micros at 56, it really was a stonking night.
Tonight looks warm and muggy again, I can’t top this list surely!

This is the first picture in the series. This was in the beginning of the shoot, and I wanted my friend who was modeling to do the most natural poses possible. I basically told her "do some poses that feel like you", and that's when she did this. This photo to me gives off a feeling of classiness and confidence.
