Re : Lachnaceae?
I am not sure if you mixed something here.
There are almost cylnidrocal spores (living in water) and strongly fusiform ones (in ?CB).
Together with the large spore size I suspect the latter to be Incrucipulum ciliare. But there the hairs are thick-walled and bear crystals, and the living spores would be multiguttulate.
Please, if you have it still fresh, look again in water for the large fusiform spores.

Re : Lachnaceae?
So they are all eguttulate. What is the length of the scale in the spore photos?

Re : Lachnaceae?
Then you must divide your measurements /2. I measure 11-16 x1.8-2.2.
But I cannot recall s species like this, perhaps American.

Re : Lachnaceae?
Hans, you are right. I measured from a 1000x photo while I was thinking it was 400x.
The correct spore measurement is:(8.4) 8.9 - 12.5 (14.1) × (1.5) 1.6 - 2.1 (2.2) µm
Q = (4.6) 4.9 - 6.3 (7.2) ; N = 20; Me = 10.5 × 1.9 µm ; Qe = 5.6
Thank you for acute observation and sharing your expertise!
