Lichenicolous fungus on Bacidia - 2015-09-19

I found this lichenicolous fungus on the small apothecia of a Bacidia sp.. It was hard to select photos from the ascoma, due to the size. However, this fungus as very peculiar feature: its spores are fusiforme, multiseptate (up to 9 septa), and "giant" with the following dimensions:
(36.1) 37.1 - 60.1 (62.1) x (8.3) 8.8 - 18.4 (21.7) µm
Q = (2.7) 2.8 - 4.1 (4.5) ; N = 13, Me = 51.5 x 15 µm ; Qe = 3.6 .
I have tryed the site Lichenicolous net, but I as not able to find anything similar. Anyone have any suggestion of what this could be?
Thanks,
zaca

Hi Zaca,
Not sure that these big ascospores belong to the lichenicolous fungus. They could belong to a Navicella species growing on the same substrate.
Have you observed asci ?
