Monomitic hyphal system, formed by thin- to slightly thick-walled hyphae, with cuticular hyphae 2 to 4 µm wide, a large portion of which show abundant refractive oily content, and context hyphae hyaline, up to 8 µm wide, all septate with clamp connections.
Without cystidia, but with scattered fusiform cystidioles in the hymenium, 10 to 19 µm long by 4 to 5 µm wide.
Basidia clavate, 15 to 20 µm long by 4.5 to 6 µm wide, with basal clamp connections difficult to observe, and tetrasporic.
