Ombrophila?

I found these asco's on a Pinus sylvestris cone between moss.
Spores (5.2) 6 - 7.2 (7.6) × (2.5) 2.8 - 3.3 (3.8) µm elliptical with 1 oil drop in each pole.
I find some similarities with this post: http://www.ascofrance.com/search_forum/43338
These apothecia are white, then pinkish.
Could it be the same fungus?
Thank you, Elsa

Re : Ombrophila?
Too bad images, sorry. Is your fungus gelatinous? The excipulum must be covered by a gel layer with embedded narrow hyphae, similarly the medulla should be in some way gelatonous.

Re : Ombrophila?
Dear Zotto,
Image 8 shows the upper gelatinous layer with hyphae, asci and parahyses.
Image 5 and 6 show medulla hyphae.
Image 2 and 3 shows cells that I think its the ectal excipulum (?)
Thks

Re : Ombrophila?
2+3 is true
5+6 not sure8 it seems that the unsharp very loose lines around the free asci come from the gelatinous medulla.
Anyway, I do not risk a name. IKI reaction and shape of the ascus apical ring are minimum in Ombrophila, as are presence of crystals.
