ID request for what seems to be a true aquatic fungus growing from submerged wood. Organism a very short (0.4mm), stiff, black rod-like structure surmounted with clusters of white conidiospores borne on spreading, curved and subswollen conidiophores (=conidiogenesis branches) with clavate tips having 5 or more tiny horn-like structures (scars) on which the white conidiospores are attached (reminds me of Botryosporium in a distant sense)Collected on sunken small piece of wood in a valley, 28/Apr/2026

Re : Black rod-like structures with branching curved conidiophores
I am happy that I reached genus level thanks to the help of Donald Salas - Phaeoisaria sp.
More work is required to reach the species level now. Many sp. are described or recorded from China, latin america, and SE Asia!, with a hotspot in NL and EN (maybe some exoperts located there and hence many records. According to GBIF the genus is barely recorded from the Mediterranean.
Closely related to P. clematidis but I don't think it is this species...
