Aschfahles Weichbecherchen

<em>Mollisia cinerea</em>, commonly known as the common grey disco, is a saprotrophic fungus belonging to the genus Mollisia within the family Mollisiaceae. This species is native to Europe, with a documented range spanning Belgium, Denmark, Norway, Portugal, and Sweden. Common grey disco is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. The species typically produces small, disc-shaped ascocarps with a grey to brownish-grey upper surface, typically emerging on decaying wood and plant debris in moist woodland habitats. As a decomposer, it plays an important ecological role in nutrient cycling within temperate forest ecosystems. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.

Helles Schilf-Filzbecherchen

Mollisia hydrophila is a tiny disc fungus producing greyish apothecia on submerged and waterlogged plant debris in aquatic habitats. It inhabits streamsides, lake margins, and wet woodland environments in temperate Europe and North America. This saprotrophic ascomycete decomposes waterlogged plant material in riparian and aquatic edge habitats.
