these Nectria like fungi grow on leaves and their stems. The photo is from Sorbus aucuparia, buy they grow on propably Salix (or Malus), too.
They are about 0,2 mm wide.
The spores are two celled, about 16-19x4-5 and asci are about 70-90x10-12.
I really need a better key for Nectria like fungi, because it has been impossible to determine these lately. Does someone know, where to look for one?

the only advice I can give you and others is to start with the masterful paper about genera: Rossman et al 1999, Genera of Bionectriaceae, Hypocreaceae and Nectriaceae (Hypocreales, Ascomycetes), 1999, Studies in Mycology 42. 1-248. Maybe someone on the forum has it as a pdf, unfortunately I don't.
There you will learn about the importance of the reaction of the ascomatal wall in KOH and lactic acid, the structure of the wall, the presence of hairs, stroma, the anamorphs and features of cultures before suggesting a genus, let alone a species.
If you skip that step it will be difficult to make any progres with these fascinating fungi.
I wish you good luck!

Here are some pages from Rossman 1999.

Hi friends,
It's always online, on SIM website : http://www.cbs.knaw.nl/publications/Sim42/content/contents.htm
Here, could it be an Hydropisphaera Christian ?
Alain
thank you for these information. I try to study them, when time allows.
So can this be a Hydropisphaera, I do not know yet ;)

Marja,
if you want you can send me your collection.
All my best
Christian
you know pretty well, that my surgery skills with my poor equipment are not the best possible ;)
So you will get post from me.
