Maybe Octospora?

Dear Forum,Today I have found this small discomycete, growing (on burnt ground ?) between mosses,
Apothecia, diameter was 2-3 mm. I measured spores 15-16 x 11-12 µm with one large oil.
It is very strange that there were also rounded spores.
It was I think this is an Octospora, but I don't know which one.
Thank you for your help.

Re : Maybe Octospora?
Hi Edit,
did you measure free ascospores?
I don't think so.
Put the ascos in the fridge, wait until they are mature and then try to identify your Octo as O. excipulata (the former O. roxheimii) on Funaria hygrometrica (which often grows on burnt ground).
Best wishes,
Marcel
