Sarcosomataceae
Description 2
The members of the traditional family Sarcosomataceae are characterized by dark colored (brown to black), tough-textured, shallow to deep cup-shaped apothecia (fruiting bodies) with or without stipes (stems), growing in the spring / early summer on rotting wood, humus or soil. The sterile tissue of the exterior underside is typically dark colored.
Plectania, Pseudoplectania, Strobiloscypha, Sarcosoma and Urnula remain in Sarcosomataceae along with Selenaspora (formerly in Otidiaceae). On the other hand, Desmazierella, Neournula, and Pseudosarcosoma were separated into Chorioactidaceae.
Three additional species found in adjacent areas, but not yet recorded from the Pacific Northwest, are included for comparative purposes as noted under the closest species: Sarcosoma globosum, Urnula craterium, and Nannfeldtiella guildeniae (the last may be in Pseudombrophila of Pyronemataceae).
