Possibly B. inquinans, but uncharacteristically this was smaller and found growing 5 feet or more above ground in the crevices of a living oak tree with no obvious signs of decay. The asci seem to be a mix of the order of spore development… first four, last four, or even middle few underdeveloped. Some of the mature spores appear multi- and not just uniguttulate. Open for suggestions!

I learned the rhyme "Sedges have edges, Rushes are round, Grasses have nodes all the way to the ground" (most of the time): joint-like nodes (where the leaf sheath ends) are found along round, hollow grass stems, stems of sedges & rushes are solid; in cross-section the stems of rushes are round, sedges are triangular (giving them edges, but they have no nodes, & triangular-stem sedges have 3-ranked leaves, leaves arranged on all 3 sides of the stem; like sedges, rush stems also have no nodes)... common names (some of the time) can confuse: Broomsedge is a grass, not a sedge; Bulrush and Woolgrass are sedges, not a rush, nor a grass

On a sweetgum seedball in muddy leaf litter; differentiating characteristics, many thanks to @pycnoporus: color and geography, plus N. niveotomentosa has white hairs, not orange, a west coast distribution, and brown periodoles (eggs), while the periodoles of C. laeve are white (not visible here in my images)

A mystery puzzler to me (every photo I test-uploaded gave different top suggestions, none plausible to me);
for the suggested Rusty Brook Lichen, Ionaspis lacustris, last photo inaturalist.org/observations/200858102

Confidence to Suggest thanks to @mhodges1957, Notes adapted, thanks to @bertharris: On a slender snag, the young tree barely still standing, near where a small stream feeds into Sugar Creek; thallus mint green and lumpy; beautiful huge (slightly) purplish lecideine apothecia that start plane and heavily pruinose but end up convex and slightly or not pruinose; 1st photo close-cropped, then full size, same for 2nd photo (admittedly where I found this after I got home, the internet was down, & studied photo perimeters as I couldn't upload)
For the other lichen, the Ciliate Wreath (Phaeophyscia ciliata), cf. inaturalist.org/observations/205137667
For the big Ant-like Longhorn Beetle (Cyrtophorus verrucosus), cf. inaturalist.org/observations/205137684
For nearby Bacidia suffusa I went looking for and found lots, cf. inaturalist.org/observations/205421248 and inaturalist.org/observations/205458504
