I think I may have found the teleomorph of Dendros
I have what I believe to be a Colopila species on account of the prominent, septate paraphyses.
Fbs: c0.5mm. Stipitate, hairy, whitish, strongly strongly discolouring dark red-brown.
Paraphyses: lanceolate, broad, septate.
Asci: 45-55x5-6.
Spores: 9-13x2-3
Hairs: septate, congealed with yellow-brown matter.
On small fallen twigs of Myrica gale.
Oui Charles,
The paraphyses are typical of the genus Colipila . The only one species I have met is C. masduguana with such spores. The substrate Myrica gale is not usual.
Amitiés

Hi Michel,
Posted this twice by mistake, just getting used to using AscoFrance!
I thought it was worth posting owing to the unusual paraphyses. The specimens discoloured very strongly red-brown-perhaps they are somewhat different from the usual race. What is the usual substrate and how frequent is the fungus? My finds were both from wet heathland. When I went on the Fungal Records Database I couldn't find Colopila although I'm aware of one other British record.
Regards,
Charles.
