Sphaerobolus look alike

Can someone help with this small asco on the underside of the bark of a fallen branch.It is very much like Sphaerobolus stellatus in shape with its outer surface opening to reveal the hymenium. The spores are club shaped, look granular and have up to 7 septa.
Thanks
Mal

Re : Sphaerobolus look alike
Hi Mal,
that looks like a Karstenia, e.g. K. rhopaloides.
Best wishes,
Gernot

Re : Sphaerobolus look alike
Yes, it is K. rhopaloides. The hymenium must be hemiamyloid.
