Apo downy, greyish olive, 0,3-1 mm diam. Asci 8-sp., ca. 85-990 µm long; Spores faintly guttulate; paraphyses with a huge unbroken vb. Spores ca. 15-19 x 2,5-3(-3,5) µm, 1-septate, fusiform, curved, also within asci; marginal celles olive, clavate at margin, 1-4 septate. I+bb. With coarse pigment granules on the external hyphae. No pigment exudes in KOH but exc. and ext. turn even stronger olive green.

Hi Thomas
the spores are strongly guttulate with large LBs as you can see on the two photos with paraphyses. Given that the spores are 1-septate within the living ascus (this is uncertain), and no crystals are there, I think this Mollisia luctuosa (= M. humidicola).
