Dear collegues, I need help.
The fruitbody is very small about 0.1-0.2 mm. It shows a peculiar outer, dark excipilum with somewhat a netlike structure. The inner excipulum has more or less rectangular cells. Spores are unicellular and are about 6-7.5 um large. The asci about 30-35 um, with a blue tip with melzer. It was found in the Lower Engadin at about 1330 m a.s.l.
Thanks
Jakob Schneller

Re : Disco on Pteridium aquilinum
Hi Jakob
Your information is very incomplete but your fungus could be Fuscolachnum pteridis

Re : Disco on Pteridium aquilinum
These dark hairs, longitudinaly arranged, are very suggestive of it
