The stromata were a black or greenish-black, depending on the angle of view. In the first photo you see the numerous pimple like openings to the embedded perithecia. The creamy to yellowish deposits are massed ascospores. In the second photo the arrow points to the stroma shown in the first photo. In the inset I show one ascus (stained with phloxine, otherwise everything is colourless in the potassium hydroxide mounting fluid). You could think of the ascus as containing 8 two-part spores. Each part-spore is similar in size (about 4x3 micromns) and form and is warted (but the warts don’t show in this photo) and seem to best fit into the Trichoderma pseudokoningii group.
