Skeletocutis percandida
(Malençon & Bertault) Jean Keller

Study description
On decaying ground wood of both conifers and broadleaves, with resupinate basidiocarps, cream-colored surface with a whitish growing margin, angular pores, 4 to 6 pores per mm, and tubes up to 1 mm long.
Hyphal system dimitic, with thick-walled skeletal hyphae, sinuous, very abundant in the subiculum, 2.5 to 3.5 µm wide; generative hyphae hyaline, thin-walled, branched, often encrusted especially at the pore edges, 2 to 3.5 µm wide, septate and clamped.
Cystidia absent, but with fusiform, smooth, thin-walled cystidioles mixed with the basidia, 15 to 20 µm long and 5 to 6 µm wide.
Basidia clavate, 15 to 20 µm long, 6 to 7 µm wide, with basal clamp connections and four-spored.
Spores cylindrical to allantoid, smooth, hyaline, thin-walled, 4.5 to 6 µm long, 1.7 to 2.6 µm wide, with an eccentric apiculus at one end, and inamyloid in Melzer's reagent.
