Apothecia are up to 2.5mm. On a big and very wet log in a creek.
Pachyella clypeata was also on the same log.
Asci 8-spored with top spores facing up and the bottom spores in reversed orientation facing down.

Tiny black balls with spikes on decorticated hardwood tree, still standing. Sharing the tree with Patellaria crassispora and Hysterobrevium mori.
Spores hyaline, with one septum.
Asci 8-spored, IKI-.

Erumpent yellow fungus that looks like Colpoma. I did not know the type of tree that this twig was from.

Bonus in the first photo is the beautiful bug with purple appendages!

Second photo is a closeup of the fungus

I would love to know what these are. As you can see by the Springtail in the first shot, these are only 2mm or so across. Growing among moss and liverworts on living wood (I wish I'd noted the plant species at the time).

Almost Lachnum like with the furry edges but lacking a stipe and some specimens containing a fluid in the centre reminiscent of Sphaerobolus stellatus.

Erupting from large black canker on white pine (no needles, dead? need to reconfirm). Pinus/Larix plantation with some Populus tremuloides, crataegus and Rhamnus cathartica. Possibly Tympanis hypopodia.
