Rutstroemia-like, but not quite

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.

Yes, probable immature. And there are also references in literature on Alnus, Betula and Corylus.

Regards Peter.
