A few fruiting bodies, 4-6 mm in diameter, grew on the ground covered with leaves. Nearby, cut out Salix and Populus, further Alnus and Prunus padus. I found nothing in the ground so it looks like they sprouted directly on the ground.
They remind me a bit of Geopora/Tarzetta fruiting bodies, but I have never seen them before. On the lower, outer surface, hyaline, brittle, rather long hair is very rare.
No reaction to iodine.
I will try to show the rest in the pictures.

Re : Asco from the ground
Hello Mirek,
this should be a Sepultariella. You can yourself look up the spore size, if it is semi-immersa or patavina (I don`t know by heart). The growth under Salix is quite typical for patavina - they are mycorhizal.
Best regards, Lothar

Re : Asco from the ground
Hi Lothar.
Oh yeah, I remember that now. It's good that you refresh my memory. These irregular and large spores confused me so much that I could not associate myself. I have microscoped Sepultariella several times, but always semi-immersa, and now I know what patavina looks like.
Thank you very much
