Cutis formed by filamentous hyphae with ochraceous intracellular pigment, up to 7 µm wide, intermixed, separated by gelatinization, septate, with scattered clamp connections, though predominantly unclamped.

Cheilocystidia abundant, cylindrical to slightly lageniform, up to 50 µm long.

Basidia cylindrical, up to 25 µm long, some with basal clamp connections.

Spores ellipsoidal with a tendency to hexagonal, smooth- and thick-walled, pale brown under the microscope, with a central apiculus at one end and a distinct germ pore at the opposite end.
