Jackrogersella sp.
Hypoxylon is another option. Pretty sure it is at least something in Xylariaceae. Black, bumpy, hard little balls of fungi.

Welcome! Hope you can find out what this is!
Yes, I will likely do that in the near future. I have been working my way through my old unidentified spottings and submitting them to forums and Facebook groups for IDs and that has been a big help. Thanks for your help with IDing my spottings :)
Interesting...you could consider submitting it to the mushroom observer website? They are usually pretty quick to make suggestions and have helped me quite a bit.
Hmmm... It does look alike, but the links I'm finding say it grows on oak, this is Birch. Maybe it is the same species but their host plant info isn't complete.
However, this spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/195... looks like it when it is younger: http://www.eol.org/pages/1004793/overvie...
Maybe Annulohypoxylon cohaerens fungi? http://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/350085-A...
