Although macroscopically it fits the discription in Doveri, the asci do not match the given ranges. But in the revision of the genus Podospora by Cain it is mentioned that asci swell considerably in water
asci: 8-spored;238.92-291.22x40.97-76.72 um.
Spores: biseriate; 27.19-31.21x17.55-20.51 um; pedicel 23.35-24.34x5.81-6.62 um; upper cauda (4) 29.94x5.53 um; Lower cauda (4) attatched to apex of pedicel
No hairs were found.

Re : Podospora Communis?
Yes, and yes, the asci can soak water and considerably increase the size a bit. The spores are remarkably (shape and size) of P. communis.

Re : Podospora Communis?
Yes, Podospora communis seems to be ok!
Another Podospora with four gelatineous caudae is P. austrohemisphaerica.
With hairy perithecia and larger spores of course!
We had it this year in Germany! Look here:
