Found on horse dung also found on sheep dung in the same area.Perithium is covered with non septated, non crustated, thickwalled curled hairs 2.7u8-3.48 um wide
Upper part has rigid stiff and curled, septated thick walled hairs 4.27-5.22 um wide.
Asci: 8-spored, 42.39x11.24 um
Spores: lemon shaped, 8.51-9.38xs7.41-7.96x6.32-6.91 um
When young they have an olive-green colour.
It also has a funnel to assist in releasing spores, when process is completed only the fruitbody with rigid non curling hairs remain.

Re : unknown Chaetomium
Hello Joop,
species of the genus Chaetomium are difficult to determinate!
It needs a lot of literature like Arx et al - The Ascomycete Genus Chaetomium, 1986 or Doveri - An update on the genus Chaetomium, PdM 29, 2008.
And it needs a lot of experience and patience.
Even then the determination is not easy!
There are some species with nearly the same spore size and similar hairs!
Maybe that your species is Ch. crispatum, but Ch. convolutum is also an option.
The common Ch. bostrychodes has similar, but slightly smaller spores.
An updated world wide key you can find in the latest work by Francesco Doveri.
