Orbilia dryadum?

On a decorticated twig of Alnus incana on moist soil there was a small group of Orbilas with apos 0.5-1.5 mm. The spores are on avg 3.1 × 1.3 µm and Q = 2.46. The asci are on avg. 29.0 × 3.2 µm.
Most details fit nicely to Orbilia dryadum but the conidia don't, they are slighly bent and the size is 12.8 - 16.2 × 4.6 - 5.6 µm. Perhaps they do not belong to the Orbilia even thogh they were found under apothecia? Southern Finland.
What should I think about this one?

Re : Orbilia dryadum?
This fits perfect indeed. Any brown conidia found in association with Orbiliomycetes are aliens and belong to other fungi.
