They're not fungi (but who knows, maybe they are). Searching for bryophilous fungi I found these two things, I don't know what to call them, on the mosses.
Does anyone have an idea what might be?

Hi Zotto
i thought about it but at first picture looks like the wrap has cracked. If it were an egg, the larva would have already been formed.

Conidia (maybe) are the oblong ellipsoid hyaline cells on the first image.

Re : Fungi or not?
I would test the hyaline ellipsoid spores if they are really cellular or perhaps some kind of glycogen, simply by adding IKI. The yellowish guttules seem to me lipid drops.

Re : Fungi or not?
Solved. I found them again and this little red mite sprouted from an "egg".

Yes, parts of destructed plant tissues, and lipid vacuoles.
