K. Paxton reported tiny anamorphs in our burn-pile. I raised a board and revealed claw-like structures. We re-covered the pile. Now there are many more as shown in the context shot.

(11) 11.6 - 13.9 (15.9) × (3.6) 3.9 - 4.4 (4.9) µm
Q = (2.5) 2.7 - 3.2 (3.7) ; N = 50
Me = 12.7 × 4.3 µm ; Qe = 3
I would also add to this that the germ slit is spore length, straight to slightly curved, and that the spores appear to be biguttulate when fresh, and 1-guttulate when dried."
