Paraphyses filiform, heavily septate, with faint brownish-grey intracellular pigment inside, irregular swellings in the terminal cell, projecting above the level of the asci.

Ascospores ellipsoidal, moderately thick-walled and strongly verrucose, hyaline, containing two large polar oil droplets inside.
