black effuse anamorph/hyphomycete

Dear all,
I found this anamorph on decorticated wood of Acer pseudoplatanus.
I thought that characteristics are quite specific but failed to identify it myself.
Thin, effused, black velvety.
Konidia very dark brown with a straight germ slit and an apical germ pore, 11-14 x 5.5-6 µm, formed terminally on short-celled, hyaline hyphae.
Any ideas are welcome,
Stefan

Re : black effuse anamorph/hyphomycete
This is reminiscent of a species of Wardomyces. The conidiogenesis looks OK for that but the habitat is not at all characteristic.

Hello David,
Thanks a lot for your Input. It seems indeed morphologically very similar to Wardomyces in many respects.
Doesn's seem to be as easy as I thought it might be...
