Apothecia on twigs from a deciduous tree (Central Norway), 3-5 mm in diameter, short-stalked. Outside somewhat "scurfy", stalks short, pale, but darker towards the base. No sign of stromatised host tissue. Asci IKI+ (blue in Lugol), 110-120 x 12-13 mcr, spores 16-18 x 4-5 mcr, with two or three guttules plus some smaller. Paraphyses filiform, 1.5-2 mcr broad. Excipulum I guess is textura intricata. I was expecting Rutstroemia, but don't find a match. There doesn't seem to be any sign of dark lines in the host tissue. Are there some kind of resin in the hymenium?
Photos of re-wetted material. All measures in water.
Suggestions appreciated. Thanks

Re : Rutstroemia-like, but not quite
That's what I thought initially. I checked images of the differet forms in Zotto's folder and I thought the spores were too narrow. No septa or budding seen, but that may because the spores aren't mature, I guess. This is collected in a spruce forest in Central Norway (but on deciduous wood), so Quercus and Fagus is out of the question. Betula or Salix most probable substrate.
Thanks.

Re : Rutstroemia-like, but not quite
Yes, probable immature. And there are also references in literature on Alnus, Betula and Corylus.
Regards Peter.
