Makromorphology:

Micromorphology:

Spores:

5-6,5 x 3-4,5 µm, cylidrical, smooth, thinwalled, inamyloid, with one droplet each.

Basidia:

13-20 x 4-7 µm, young clavate, mature cylindrical, median with one slightl constriction, with one basal clamp each.

Sterigmata:

four, up to 3 µm long.

Cystidia:

tubular Tramacystidia, 5-6,5 µm in diameter, up to ca. 300 µm long, walls up to 2,5 µm thick, apikally thinwalled, apex obtuse. The Tramacystidia arise from subicular hyphe with one basal clamp.

Clamps:

All primary septa have one clamp each.

Hyphae:

Hyphal system monomitic. Subicular hyphae 2,5-4 µm in diameter, thin- to slightly thickwalled (0,5 µm), loosely branched. Subhymenial hyphae 3-5 µm in diameter, thinnwalled, loosely branched. Hyphal branching by subseptal outgrowing or by outgrowing of clamps.

Aculei:

In their inner part aculei consist of tubular tramacystidia. The tips of the aculei are fimbriate by protuding tramacystidia.
