I’m surprised no one else challanged this

identification before you and I explicitly questioned my own ID. These small cups were on well rotted wood and did not look like any Otidea that I was familiar with. My impression was the some cups were folded slightly rather than split but I have to admit I did not do any microscopy and my ID was based on picture matching and google searching. Whatever this is I believe have found it several times but didn’t photograph it before.
Possibly Otidea sp.?

Bill,
Just a thought, these look a lot like very young Otidea sp. I think Tarzetta would not exhibit a ‘split’ in the cup. What is confusing is the wood substrate. I wonder if the wood was ‘rotten’.
