Spiny uniperithciate asco with greenish dictyospores

Hello all,
A friend noticed these tiny fruiting bodies on the same decorticated branch of hardwood as my previous forum post. (I have been having a one branch foray.) The very tiny black uniperitheciate fruiting bodies are covered with long black spines. The asci are saccate, measuring 38-50 x 23-27µm. Spores are a broadly ellipsoid, dull greenish color with around 3 to 5 transverse septa and at least 3 longitudinal ones. Some of the septa are oblique-- usually in the end cells of the spores. Spores measure 14-16 x 7.5-8µm. The spines are brown, thick-walled, without septa. The larger hairs are longer than 100µm. Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.
Ethan
