Hello everyone, On dead wood of Cytisus scoparius
Helotiales on thin Salix branch

The asci have eight spores and some seem to have "Psilachnum drops" or whatever you call those. Paraphyses +- cylindrical, some look like they have a VB. Ectal excipulum of textura globosa, IKI+. croz+.Â
Spores:
8.6 - 9.5 × 1.9 - 2.4 µm
Q = 3.6 - 4.5 ; N = 5
Me = 8.9 × 2.2 µm ; Qe = 4.1
Any idea what this is?

Re : Helotiales on thin Salix branch
Hmm... now I'm thinking maybe this is a Mollisia? The thought didn't occur to me earlier for some reason. Too bad I didn't test KOH...

Re : Helotiales on thin Salix branch
No idea. Perhaps you have more pics of the paraphyses?
The hyaline excipulum seems to exclude a Pyrenopeziza, although the ascus guttule occurs in some species such as P. "aquosa".
Perhaps you succeed with a section?
Your fungus is growing on xeric bark, apparently rather undecayed.

Re : Helotiales on thin Salix branch
I didn't make a section and don't have the sample anymore. But here's three more pics. The paraphyses were a bit difficult to photograph and these aren't the best pics. Not sure if frosts have had some effect...
The branch was indeed quite fresh-looking and well above ground level (1.5 - 2 m or so).
