Joop,
je pense qu'il s'agit de Coniochaeta discospora (Aursw.) Cain.

Re : Coniochaeta?
Joop,
It seems close to Coniochaeta lignicola (=C. discospora). However, the short asci, ellipsoidal ascospores and lack of (or inconspicuous) germ slit do not fit C. lignicola perfectly . I can't find a name that is better though.
