Hymenoscyphus on wood

this one puzzels me lacking clear features. The apothecia grow with a short stipe on a soaked dead and mostly decorticated twig of a broadleave tree. Their colour is cream to yellowish.
I found hundreds of paraphyses (septated and with refractive bodies in the upper segment) but only few asci (c. 75 x 5 µm). No chance to check whether they arise from croziers or not (I made several preparations...). With IKI I could observe a faint blue reaction of the apical apparatus. The few spores I found are scutuloide, 1-septate when mature and filled with 1 big and some smaller oildrops (10,1-12,5 x 3,2-4,2 µm).
My hope is that the overall appearence will remind some of you on a group of species I should look after.
Best regards,
Martin

Hello Martin,
this looks like Hymenoscyphus vernus, which I've found on wet wood.
Except that the spores were not septate and I've not mentioned too many papaphyses ;)
Anyway the paraphyses had many droplets and were a little longer than asci.
But my determinations may not always be rock solid ;)

Hi Martin & Marja
good to see that you try idetification yourself, Marja! I think it is the close H. kathiae. H. vernus has often a longer stipe (but must not), and the spores not so much oil. Septa often occur in overmature stages in many species.
Important would be the ascus base (H- in vernus, H+ in kathiae and imberbis). With KOH+CR I usually easily see whether there are croziers or not. Or in the living state in a section without squashing.
