Melanomma-like on Salix

I'm not sure where to place this fungus which I found last week on a branch of Salix ca. 1.5 m above the ground. Hopefully I'm not just missing something obvious here! The ascospores are smooth, thin-walled, light brown, 4-septate with the second cell from the top being the broadest, measuring 21.6–23.2 x 8,3–9,0 µm. No sheath observed. Asci are bitunicate, 8-spored, with ascospores being arranged somewhat uni- to bi-seriately. Hamathecium filaments are up to 4.6 µm wide. Any ideas or suggestions?
Thank you and best wishes,
Gernot

Re : Melanomma-like on Salix
hi gernot,
the spores are long. perhaps you have to search in genus thyridaria?

Re : Melanomma-like on Salix
Hi all,
no, Thyridaria fbs are always embedded +/- into host surface (or into a valsoid stroma) and there are furthermore only a few species with spores >20µm. I think this is a Melanomma, did you check Holm?

Re : Melanomma-like on Salix
Hi Dirk & Björn,
thanks for your suggestions! I did check Holm but to no avail. However, I found a species in Mathiassen (1989) that fits relatively well: Leptosphaeria hendersoniae (now Plenodomus hendersoniae). Mathiassen even mentions that some collections of this species "have been wrongly identified as Melanomma pulvis-pyrius".
The ascospores are a bit longer in Mathiassen (20.5–27(30) x 7–9.5 µm, mean 24.6 x 7.9 µm) so I will check that again but I'm fairly certain that this is a good track.
Best wishes,
Gernot

Re : Melanomma-like on Salix
Yes, indeed the species has a leptosphaerioid appearance. I wonder about the habitat, perhaps Plenodomus is a good name for it.
