Mollisia or related genus from Portugal - with quite peculiar character

Found on hanging tiwg of Olea europaea in dried-out stage, then water was added.The brown excipulum of globulosa, the vacuolar bodies in the paraphyses and the macroscopical appearance lead to Mollisia or related genera.
The spores are oil-rich, with mostly 4 large guttules, and measure about 22-28/4-5 µm, they are 1- or mostly 3-septate already within the asci. Old spores found outside sometimes germinate at their ends like a Rutstroemia. I never saw this in Mollisia (?).
The asci are large, about 100-150/11-12 µm (few measured), and bear croziers. They are ioidine-negative in Baral.
Who can contribute to a determination?

Re : Mollisia or related genus from Portugal - with quite peculiar character
Hallo Lother, Nipterella parksii seems similar, but has IKI deep blue apical rings. I have it in my folder Mollisia on wood & bark. Zotto

possibly Nipterella parksii
Hello Zotto,
thank you very much for your reply and species proposal.
I will try again the IKI-reaction with the scanty exciccatum when I am at home again (in the moment we are in the North of Spain for a visit in the Picos de Europa).
Best regards, Lothar
