Up to 5mm across with short hairs (150um) and smooth spores mostly with one oil droplet.
The spores are up to 35um x 16 um.
Can anyone help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Malcolm,
recently, here was a post by Bernard Declercq with a fungus which was similar to yours - and it was determined as Octosporopsis nicolai. Try to compare it.

Thanks for the pointer. Having read through the description of Octosporopsis nicolai (thanks Peter) it seems a good fit in many respects. The size and shape of the multiseptate hairs and paraphyses are good. The size and shape of the spores also fit well except for the fact that my find had a single droplet rather than the two in the type description and I don't know if that is an important enough difference to reject the identification.

Re : Cheilymenia?
Hi Mal,
I had no doubt that it O. nicolai.
Hyalin incrustations on the hairs are not unusual. The spores that you showed are overmature.
Could you please send me the collection data to my private email-address?
Thanks a lot!
Best, Uwe
