Re:Xylaria sp.
Hi Vasileios,
the shape of stromata of X. hypoxylon is extremely variable, from fusiform as on your photo to flattened ramiified as often illustrated. I think your find is a typical X. hypoxylon with finely furrowed surface and prominent discoid ostioles. The occurrence of the anamorphic stromata in late autumn -winter is likewise typical for this species, as is the spore morphology.
Cheers,
Jacques.
