Study description

Hymeniform cutis, formed by clavate, practically spherical to very slightly pyriform, hyaline hyphae.

Caulocystidia abundant and lecythiform.

Cheilocystidia abundant, lecythiform, with a moderately broad capitulum. The width measurements indicated here correspond to the width of the capitulum, not the broadest part of the belly.

Basidia clavate, rather short, slightly widened at the apex, mostly 4-spored.

Spores ellipsoidal, smooth, thick-walled, with a lateral apiculus at one end and a germ pore at the opposite end, with vacuolar content, moderately darkening in KOH.
