Study description
In open areas at woodland edges, formerly known as Clitocybe fontqueri, with applanate to umbilicate, funnel-shaped pilei 1.5 to 2.5 cm across, brownish to greyish brown; white decurrent lamellae without bifurcations; a cylindrical creamy-brown stipe; farinaceous odor and taste.
Cuticle filamentous, formed by hyphae arranged more or less parallel to slightly interwoven, smooth, thin-walled, 4 to 6 µm wide, with abundant ochraceous-brown pigment inside, with hair-like terminal elements up to 5 µm wide with rounded apices; all hyphae septate and clamped.
Lamellar edge lacking elements differentiated from basidia or basidioles (cystidia absent).
Basidia clavate, 25 to 30 µm long, 6 to 8 µm wide, with basal clamp connections and four-spored.
Spores ellipsoidal, smooth, hyaline, thin-walled, with an eccentric apiculus at one end, 5.5 to 7 µm long, 3 to 4 µm wide, containing oil droplets inside, and inamyloid in Melzer's reagent.
