These tiny (0.4-0.5 mm diam.), whitish, short-stip

When I collected this (only one ascoma, maybe about 1,5 cm large) in a submediterranen deciduous forest near Varese Ligure (Liguria, Italia, 6.11.2018) I first thought of Humaria aurantia, but this seems to be wrong.
Unfortunately, I did not find a single spore outside of the asci - and only quite few asci with spores inside.
Can anyhow somebody provide me with a hint? The macroscopical appearance seems quite characteristic to me.
Thanks and best regards, Lothar
perhaps Pseudaleuria fibrillosa? Eguttulate spores, capitate paraphyses, croziers+, thick yellow to brownish yellow hyphoid hairs...

Hello Viktorie,
thank you very much - this seems to fit very well.
I must admit that I did not know the name of this fungus by now.
Best regards, Lothar
Hallo Peter,
auch Dir vielen Dank!
Lieben Gruß nach Sonneberg von Lothar
