Re : Fir Cone Scale Discomycete
A Hymenoscyphus or Phaeohelotium.
Squash mounts of the apothecium are rather useless, important would be a section showing the ectal excipulum at flanks.
Croziers at ascus base, and especially a docu of living paraphyses and spores would be essential.

Re : Fir Cone Scale Discomycete
The material has been dried. I assume this eliminates any chance of seeing anything living. I will next look for croziers. Where is the 'flank'?

Re : Fir Cone Scale Discomycete
The flanks are the region in the middle between stipe apex and margin.
Possibly the spores survive some weeks or months.
