Conocybe siliginea

Cellular cutis, composed of clavate, spherical to pyriform hyphae, hyaline or with slight ochraceous intracellular pigment.

Caulocystidia filiform, cylindrical-sinuous (Section Pilosellae).

Cheilocystidia lecythiform, small, with a narrow neck. The width measurements indicated here correspond to the width of the capitulum, not the broadest part of the base.

Basidia clavate and 2-spored.

Spores large, quite dark, brown under the microscope in water, smooth, thick-walled, with a lateral apiculus at one end and a very conspicuous germ pore at the opposite end (up to almost 3 µm), darkening significantly in KOH.
