Found on horse dung.Fruitbody covered with rigid hairs mainly originating from the base of the neck.
Hairs: 173-300x3.2-3.5 um, thick walled 0.6-0.7 um, rounded top, septated.
Asci: containing mature spores 226x86 um; with immature spores 229.5-260x42-55 um; 128 spores, because of pressure on the cover glass one asci bursted and ejected the spores, last two photos are the burst and the counting of one part (78 spores) by appointing a dot, the software did the counting.
Spores: 19-21x12.5-14 um; pedicel 9-10.5x4.5-5.5 um; upper cauda bifid 12 um long; lower cauda attached to top of pedicel 16 um long.
Gelatinous layer not observed but bifid upper appendages indicate that it's there.

Re : Podospora Bifida
Hello Joop,
this is undoubtedly Podospora bifida.
Sometimes the ascospores maybe a little bit larger, but I also found this species with a sporesize like you wrote.
Typically are the short, stiff brown hairs, the short and broad pedicel and of course the bifid base of the upper cauda.
I have nearly 40 findings, mostly (85%) on old horse dung.
I'll add the description of Lundqvist, that you can compare.
