The first photo shows some of the specimens collected for herbarium lodgement and the composite photo shows some macro & micro detail. For in situ photos, taken from where I collected my specimens, see https://admin-canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Sightings/Details/4263443. There are some technical notes in the species' description (https://admin-canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Species/Sightings/45292) and with regard to those I make some comments about the material I collected: The paraphyses have variously shaped yellow-brown refractive bodies but some asci seemed to show a very weak amyloid reaction (when fresh material was placed directly in Melzer's or Lugol's reagents). When fresh material was put in KOH the refractive bodies were still visible - but very faintly and against a very pale brownish wash of colour that filled the paraphyses.
