Hi againI think this is more interesting.
On a spider, 2,5-3 mm tall, light pink synemmata.
Conidiospores:
(3.48) 3.87 - 4.52 (4.98) x (1.65) 1.89 - 2.20 (2.41) µm
Q = (1.61) 1.86 - 2.30 (2.58) ; N = 46
Me = 4.18 x 2.03 µm ; Qe = 2.07
Thanks in advance

Hi Miguel.
I think your collection matches Gibellula pulchra. The conidiophores of G. leiopus are very short and the conidia are a little bit more longer (4-5 µm).
I'm going to send to you a paper of A. Kubátová about G. leiopus.

Hi Nicolas
It looks like G. pulchra, more than G. leiopus, but I am not capable to distinguish both species . I have found more papers and pictures about G. pulchra in the internet, wich requires a more careful reading.
But, what is the picture nº 5, which was present mainly in the stem, while conidiophores (pictures 6-9) where present mainly in the cap?
Thanks about the paper.

Conidiophores can be present on the stem, this is what is shown on the 5th picture.

Re : Gibellula arachnophila f pleiopus?
Ooops, I thought conidiophores were pictures 6-9 ( like in G. pulchra), and picture 5 are ¿? another type of conidiophores, more similar to G. pleiopus ones.
