are composed of small, yellow-brown, indistinct, and thick-walled cells, the 
margins of long, nearly fibrous, black-brown cells with very thick walls. 
The tissue in the midst of the ascomata is formed of rounded, angular or 
isodiametric, parenchymatous cells which also have very thick walls. The 
hymenial layer is interspersed with small and irregular brown particles. 
The same particles together with the ends of the poorly developed para- 
physes form a brown layer over the asci. The few, large and flat loculi 
soon run entirely together, forming one large and continuous hymenium.
