Thomas,
your data need to be more precise... Are the spore dimensions a mean? In this case, can you give the interval for spore length.
Dimension of apothecia?

Spores: 14.5 - 19.1 x 9.0 - 11.4 ym - Q: 1.40 - 1.90 (Ø LxB: 17.2 x 10.2 ØQ:1.7 N: 19) with few "Macrospores" up to 24 ym (not considered in above)
What you see on the picture has about the size of 2 cm in width and abt the same height.

Re : Otidea platyspora or something else?
Thank you so much.
I left overnight a piece on a slide and measured again.
Now it seems to fit better. Now I have slightly larger measurements.
16.7 - 20.0 x 9.7 - 11.8 ym - Q: 1.54 - 1.89 (Ø LxB: 18.4 x 10.9 ØQ:1.7 N: 20)
