ASCO BEAUTIFULLY ORNATE

Hello collegues!I found this ascomycete in horse dung. Initially, the external appearance, i thought it is a Gymnoascus specie. But when i visualized the ascus, i changed my opinion, because it has in its wall a hexagonal ornamentation. Hyaline spores, targeted and larger than 10 microns. Can anyone give some guidance?
Thanks for attention!?

Re : ASCO BEAUTIFULLY ORNATE
Hello Francisco
those don't look like asci to me; and those spores could well be 'strays'. I would want to see spores inside an ascus before giving an opinion.

PS did you get the previous comment of mine on your Thamnostylum piriforme?

Hi Chris, thanks for your comment!
Unfortunately, i don't have more pics this specie. ?Was very inconspicuous, and only watched once.? I have such doubts and others too. And how i no have more samples...
P.S.: I don't receive your comments about T. piriforme, unfort?unately... if you want to send, is most welcome!? See a pic in your email!

Re : ASCO BEAUTIFULLY ORNATE
Hi again,
I am now pretty sure that these "asci" are thecamoeba. Maybe of the genus Euglypha. C.f. here:
