What a great found, Joop!
I'm sure, that is Spumatoria longicollis Massee & Salmon!
This species was lost for nearly 100 years, before Peter and me found it in 2000 and 2004!
Have a look at:
"Beiträge zur Kenntnis coprophiler Pilze (1)1_Welt & Heine, ZMykol 72.1, 2006",
pages 27-29.
At the time Nils Lundqvist helped us to determinate!
Best wishes

Is it possible to have a scan of the article on this fungus?
Thank you very much.
Michel
I'll attach our article and the description from Massee & Salmon: Annals of Botany, 1901
