Monodictys?
Gernot Friebes,

could this be a Monodictys? It grew on the inner surface of a piece of bark. The conidia are 23-28 µm long, 16-19 µm wide and have a 20-32 µm long and 6-8 µm wide appendage. The upper third is black, the conidia are muriform. I don't find a description of a fitting species.
Best wishes and thanks in advance,
Gernot

very strange, I know Monodictys only with entirely brown muriform conidia.

Re:Monodictys?
Hi Zotto,
but there are species such as Monodictys bicolorata (have a look at Mycotaxon 64, 1997; Page 189) with two-coloured conidia, so I think it's possible that my find is a Monodictys too.
Best wishes,
Gernot

Re:Monodictys?
Yes, that looks somewhat similar. I had also such cushions, more yellow, with totally different conidia (muriform, rough, olive-brown) which I could not identify.
There is also Acrodictys which I think I had once.

Re:Monodictys?
Hi Gernot,
your fungus resembles to Monodictys melanopa (Ach. ex Dawson Turner) M.B. Ellis but the conidia are 25-47 x 18-27 µm.
Acrodictys genus possess brown to black conidiophores
All the best

Re:Monodictys?
Hi Christian,
I wasn't sure about M. melanopa because of the small conidia and the very conspicuous appendages but you are right, other than that it fits very well. Thanks!

Hi Christian, you are right, here is my Acrodictys:
Asturias, Las Bárzanas (Castrillón), 25-IV-2009, bark of Eucalyptus gobulus, soc. Orbilia alba. Conidia 22 x 15 µm
Unidentified so far.

Re:Monodictys?
Hi Zotto,
how are septate the conidia of your collection? two species are possible according to size of the conidia: A. fulliginosa or A. sacchari.

Re:Monodictys?
They are muriform yes, but so black that a photo cannot show. Luckily I have one which is medium brown (I hope it belongs to the others):
