Spores ellipsoidal to amygdaliform having appendage at one side and a clearly distinct germpore, hyaline at first, then greenish and later on brownish 26 × 14 µm (33 × 18 µm, max.)

Re : Schizothecium for identification
Hola Suhaib, tengo un Schizothecium sobre estiércol de vacuno parecido al que nos muestras y las claves del género con unas medidas esporales de 31-33 × 14-16 µm. me llevaron al Schizothecium aloides, pero no puedo afirmar que en tu caso se trate de este ya que los ascos de mi estudio no eran uniseriados.
Saludos cordiales.

Re : Schizothecium for identification
Hola Josep, this is not Schizothecium aloides, because this species has very long hairtufts. It's difficult to give a name for it.
Suhaib Yatoo asked me in private and I wrote the following to him:
"I can't say for sure but I think this is Schizothecium conicum or glutinans.
Spore size 26 x 14 is perfect for Sch. conicum but too small for glutinans, whereas 33 x 18 is too large for conicum but it fits well for glutinans."

I was also contacted by Suhaib and I replied the same as Norbert.
