Purple-brown Discomycete with Globose Spores Weakly Amyloid Asci

All,
I would love some help with a purple-brown discomycete with globose spores, weakly amyloid asci with lilac walls, spore contents also appear lilac BUT all structures are not deeply pigmented as is apparently the case for Smardaea. My detailed notes (see notes field), photos (including photomicrography) and references consulted are at https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/259709955
Thanks in advance!

Re : Purple-brown Discomycete with Globose Spores Weakly Amyloid Asci
This is a Plicaria species.
I found a very similar species last year in Corsica and I thought, on the field, it was a Smardaea. DNA analysis revealed a new species.

Thank you! Are the notes/photos/sequence from your Corsican collection posted anywhere? I would also appreciate any suggestions re: related literature.
