I think it is *Xylaria hypoxylon*, commonly known as candle snuff fungus because of its characteristics black and white appearance like an extinguished candle-wick. These is a perithecial fungus. This sp. produce antler-shaped structures (0.03 - 0.05 cm dia) as can be seen in the pic but *X. polymorpha* produces irregularly club-shaped structures about 1-3cm in diameter.
