Apothecium cup-shaped, with brownish hairs on the perimeter.
Apothecium diameter: 0.3-2.5 cm.
Hymenium yellowish-gray, bumpy, hygrophanous.
Ascospores: (17) 18-20 x 8-9 (9.5) ìm.
Paraphyses 2.5-4 ìm (at the top).
Hyphae 7-10.5 ìm, hyaline, with clamps.
Any idea what this is?

It should be necessary to see marginal hairs, with focus on apex, walls, septation and size (L, l).
It seems that hair distribution is in fascicles, so it makes me think about the genus Tricharina. But I cannot exclude the genus Trichophaea. Hair deep analysis really mandatory.
What about the ornementation of the spores? it seems to be smooth, right?

I forgot to ask about presence of guttules in the spores.

Re:Help with identification
Thank you again, Francois.
Unfortunately, I don't have the specimens (they belong to a friend). However, I will ask him to provide the information and, if and when I have it, I'll write again.

Hi.
As François, I think it's probably a Tricharina sp., because we don't see any guttules into the spores. Information on hairs is needed to help you.
Best regards
Nico
