for determination of these "Hysterothecia", spores are the most important feature. There are two common species which mostly grow on bark of various trees: Hysterium angustatum and Hysterium pulicare. The latter one has beautiful bicolorous spores.

I don't know this taxon, Index Fungorum gave the name as legitimate name suggested in Fries as H. acuminatum. You have to check the descriptions provided in the literature.
