Patrice TANCHAUDBonsoir, récolte sur un mur en pierre, apothéci

"Le KOH utilisé est à 5%, je n'ai pas de 3%. Cette différence est-elle cruciale pour la réaction des paraphyses ?"
A high concentration is better, 10% or 20% is much safer.
"Spores hyalines, guttulées aux extrémités : 7,3 - 10,6 X 1,7 - 2,9"
1,7? Can you show a narrow spore like that?
Your find is Mollisia olivaceocinerea (Svrcek). This is a fairly mobile complex that is phylogenetically divided at least into Mollisia oblonga and nodosa. I cannot tell the difference between these two species either by eye or by microscope.

Dead spores are much narrower than vital ones.
You've just shown the best example.
Here is another example. Look at the spores top right:
