Many specimens of presumed ashcroftine-(Y) submitted for analysis resulted to be amorphous or non-crystalline (see http://forum.amiminerals.it/viewtopic.php?t=6071). According to Carlini & Signoretti (2018) the lilac, brown or creamy interlaced acicular crystals or felted masses incorrectly attributed in the past by some collectors to ashcroftine-(Y) are referable to more or less altered terms of the ludwigite-vonsenite series.
