On bare soil in the laboratory. 



Type locality: Lincoln, Nebraska. 



Distribution: Known only from the type locality. 



In this species the asci open by means of an operculum, 

 characteristic of the group. After the discharge of the spores 

 the asci themselves partially collapse while the operculum seems 

 to keep approximately its original size; so that the lid of the 

 emptied asci appears to be too large for the ascus, as indicated 

 in the sketch. This is just the reverse of conditions found in 

 some of the other operculates in which the lid is very much 

 smaller than the diameter of the ascus, even after the spores 

 are discharged.
