White on a Vaccinium leaf

once again I went to forest and am lost with the determination of my scanty collection.
I did not even try to take a macrophoto of the tiny fungus. It is one of these white, hairy ones, that are hardly 0,1 mm wide.
The spores are 4-6x1,5-2 and have polar droplets.
The asci are 18-27x4-6, IKI blue.
The hairs are 15-25x2-5 and odd. The shape is hyaloscyphalike, but I have not seen such amount of granules on Hyaloscypha hairs.
Is this still a Hyaloscypha species or is the genus some else?

Re : White on a Vaccinium leaf
hello,
are the walls really thick or is it just the focus?

Re : White on a Vaccinium leaf
Hi Timo,
the hairs are not glassy, if you mean that. They seem normal walled like some Cistellas etc.
I still have the leaf with about 5 apos in fridge, in case that extra studies are needed, but will put it drying soon and label it as a Hyaloscyphaceae sp., if I nothing else comes up.
The rainy weathers have been favorable for many rare species this season here. Of course some species like wet weathers so much, that they do not have do produce spores ;)
