Karstenia chrysophaea? - from Portugal

... on twig attached to small tree of Citrus aurantius, together with Clonostachys ralfsii (det. A. Gardienet). As the few apothecia (only seen after water-addition) were growing in an algal mat they could well be lichenised (without having evidence for this).
I think it must be a Karstenia and I do not find a better species than chrysophaea.
The spores have up to 11 septa and are about 40-55/3,5-4,5 µm large, with both ends pointed.
Who can help?
Best regards, Lothar

Re : Karstenia chrysophaea? - from Portugal
This may well be a Karstenia, but I would like to see the periphysoids on the inner margin. The apos are small, but only a median section would show them. Examples of sections with periphysoids are many in my Karstenia folder.
