Found on horse dung.I have looked into the difference between P. Anserina and P. Comata but the difference is not very clear to me.
Perithecia: 556.51-368.47 um, with tufs of hair at the base of the neck, also single hairs observed, hairs have a width of 2.75 um, thick walled and septated. Hair length 94.89 um and more. Neck 107.83x105.15 um.
Asci: 192.50-235.46x20.05-29.27 um, with a long stipe of 66.14 um long. 4-spored.
Spores: uniseriate, 38.57-41.48x16.85-18.54 um with a primary appendage of 23.81x4.38 um, upper appendage no length but 8.1-9.1 um wide at the base, no secondaty appendages found attached to the primary appendage.

Re : Podospora Anserina or Podospora Comata?
Hello Joop,
the current name of this species should be Podospora pauciseta (Ces) Traverso, (=Podospora anserina (Rabenh.) Niessl.)
Please look at Species Fungorum for synonymy!
http://www.speciesfungorum.org/Names/SynSpecies.asp?RecordID=121083
Podospora comata has smaller spores: 26-32(35) x 15-17,5(19)µm and no hairtufts at the neck.

Re : Podospora Anserina or Podospora Comata?
Norbert is of course quite correct; it is sometimes also worth looking at Mycobank in these circumstances, if you search there for Podospora anserina it will point out the current name (Cesati's specific epithet predates Rabenhorst's) also has an image of macro and micro characters, and gives a link to a description from Matsushima (and others): http://www.mycobank.org/BioloMICS.aspx?Link=T&TableKey=14682616000000063&Rec=23283&Fields=All
