more and higher resolution images available at inaturalist.org/observations/186956562
Preliminary literature and fungarium searches indicate this may be a new genus record for the state of New Mexico.
Substrate likely spruce or fir, but aspen cannot be ruled out. Substrate also shared by another Dasyscyphus-/Lachnellula-like discomycete, photos and micrographs of which are forthcoming.
Stage micrometer was recently lost, and so sadly I have no measurements at this time.

Yes, this looks like Brunnipila, possibly B. calyculiformis. The asci should have croziers in that species.
The wood looks like an angiosperm, but that is easily seen in a cross-cut.

thank you Zotto. at my next opportunity, I will photograph the substrate in section and search for croziers.
