I suppose it is a Myriosclerotinia, possibly M. sulcata.
The stipe should emerge from a sclerotium.
The blue apical ring is clearly of the Sclerotina-type.

Thanks a lot, Zotto. It really grew from a sclerotium, it´s visible in one of the photos - it was black, 10,5x5x1 mm. I became unsure it was really a sclerotium, so I didn´t mention it.
