Hi, Dear Jacob,
Maybe useful to try another genus. Beak of the perithecium is not seen (in genera of the Diaporthaceae and Melanconidaceae they always present).

Re : Diaporthe? on Berberis communis
I have checked, as far as possible, in Wehmeyer's monographs (about Diaporthe - 1933), and about Melanconis and allied genera (1941). The stroma of your find looks like those of Melanconidaceae , but I don't know if the spores have appendages. If present - this fungus could be attached to Prosthecium (maybe an undescribred one), but I am not familiar with Prosthecium.
In Wehmeyer's monograph (1933) there are 2 species amongst the large spored ones - Cryptodiaporthe magnispora (Acer) and C. pyrrhocystis (Alnus, Coprylus) - but the spores are not constricted at septa and are much thinner (6) 7-9 micrometers.

Re : Diaporthe? on Berberis communis
Bonjour,
Before searching in Diaporthales, the first question should be : are the asci bitunicate or unitunicate ?

Re : Diaporthe? on Berberis communis
Yes, the right question to answer. Thank you, Alain!
