Its most famous species is Ascocoryne sarcoides. This bisporella is characterized by a fruiting body (technically an apothecium) with a pinkish-purple color and more or less gelatinous consistency. The apothecium, typically 5 - 15 mm in diameter, starts with a roughly spherical shape, then eventually flattens out to become shallowly cup-shaped with a wavy edge and smooth upper surface. The lower surface may be covered with small particles (granular), and the apothecium is either attached directly to the growing surface (sessile), or has a rudimentary stem.
