The specimen is not fully ripe, so I found few spores outside the asci.
The rosy-pale apothecia are not (conspicuously) hairy, the excipulum of textura globulosa-(angularis), the paraphyses capitate and the asci 8-spores, without croziers.
One spore I could photograph - the form is quite special (?), the spore bodies are mostly roundish.
Can the species be named - or if not: what should be cleared still?
Yours, Lothar
P.S. I also found "Unguiculariopsis" castanea near Stictis in the same tour.

Hi Lothar, look O. comma. The branch should be Ulmus.

Hello Zotto,
thank you - sure!
I did not think of O. comma because I only found O. comma on or below bark on standing trees of Ulmus. Anyway I should have recognised it ...

Re : Orbilia from Germany (Schwäbische Alb)
Yes, it may occur this way as well! In such a case one can check the wood anatomy, while when only taking bark home it is not so easy to recognize Ulmus.
