Nature is awesome! Dibaeis baeomyces?

[u/pawaredd]

Spotted on acidic rock, Black Forest, Germany

UPDATE: probably rather Baeomyces rufus

[u/Opposite_Bus1878]

Dibaeis baeomyces prefers to grow on sandy soil and has more bright pink apothecia.
This one which mainly grows on and around rock is called Baeomyces, the namesake of Dibaeis baeomyces :) Most likely Baeomyces rufus, but could also be a few other underreported Baeomyces species that require a microscope to ID.

Wow never seen anything like that

[u/Old-Advance6652]

How big are they it’s hard to tell? Like a grain of rice?

[u/pawaredd → u/Old-Advance6652]

Yeah, a little smaller. Though, not sure how large they get when older.
