                Hi Vasileios,
X. cupressiformis is a rotten name, forget it.
I would be much interested in seeing material from your country. Can you please gently dry the specimen and mail it to the following address?

                Re:Xylaria cupressiformis ?
                Hi Vasileios,
many thanks for the material you sent. The Xylaria is indeed very interesting. It is closely related to X. hypoxylon but may be something a bit different. Unfortunately it is overmature, perithecia are empty or filled with white mycelium, only few ascospores could be found on the surface of the stroma.
I would be interested in any mateial of Xylaria collected in your country, provided it is mature, with asci and mature ascospores. You can check it easily with a hand lens and a razor blade, make a section of the stroma and perithecial contents must be shiny black. Make a slide if you have the opportunity for more evidence.
Regarding the other specimens, they are Discomycetes and I will not be able to help you.
Cheers,
Jacques
