Typhlocyba saffrana? - Ribautiana tenerrima
Scarborough Brook Conservation Area, Belchertown, Hampshire County, Massachusetts, USA
October 7, 2009

Since the known hosts are in three different families, I suppose an additional host in one of those families wouldn't be too surprising.

Black spots
I can't find any black spots on this that aren't on the Typhlocyba images, and this wasn't on Rubus, but I'll take your word for it.
