Glutinoglossum

I am yet again looking as some dried specimens of Earth tongues for a colleague and this Glutinoglossum has me confused.The spores are 75-90 long with the vast majority 7 septate. There are a few with less but almost none with 3. This fits well with G heptaseptatum. Then looking at the paraphyses although some are the expected swollen balloon shape something like 3/4 of them have outgrowth which is not like anything I have seen before. The stipe elements are straight and also balloon shaped but without the rostrum of the paraphyses.
None of the species featured in the Glutinoglossum paper by A.G. Fedosova1, E.S. Popov 1, P. Lizo?2, V. Ku?era seem to show this feature.
Has anyone come across this?
Thanks
Mal
