we are looking for ideas regarding this pyrenomycetoid fungus with orange to red ostioles, collected on bark of Populus tremula. It is very distinctive, so I hope that someone might recognise it.
Thank you and best wishes,

It looks quite a bit like Byssosphaeria. Could be Byssosphaeria rhodomphala that has seen better days. Or something similar.

Best wishes,
