I found this small cup fruiting on charred wood in a firepit that I could use some help with. NE US. Spores seemed small for Pulvinula but it could have been immature I couldn't get many to drop onto a slide.
Apothecia 1-3 mm On burnt wood in a campsite fireplace. Paraphysis hooked, mostly unforked very little keratinoid pigmintation, IKI-, Spores single large guttule: (7.1) 7.5-8.6 (9.2) x (6.8) 7.2-8.6 (*9.4)
Asci 147x10.6

Re : Small spored Pulvinula?
I attach some descriptions by Huhtinen and Rifai. As you will see, the variability of some characters seems to be large.

Re : Small spored Pulvinula?
That answers that pretty thoroughly, thanks for the descriptions as well.

Re : Small spored Pulvinula?
I agree with Enrique. P. carbonaria, another carbonicolous species, has larger ascospores.
