spores
Spore of the present species measure (9.1–) 9.4–11.0 (–12.2) × (7.6–) 8.0–9.8 (–10.2) µm and are subglobose to broadly ellipsoid and inamyloid. Clamps are probably absent from bases of basidia.

At present the species is known only from deciduous
woods in Connecticut.—R. E. Tulloss

GenBank nos.
Due to delays in data processing at GenBank, some accession numbers may lead to unreleased (pending) pages.
These pages will eventually be made live, so try again later.
Olive text indicates a specimen that has not been
thoroughly examined (for example, for microscopic details) and marks other places in the text
where data is missing or uncertain.
The following material is based on original research of R. E. Tulloss.
pileus
65 mm wide, brownish yellow, with gray-brownish tan
over umbo; context ??; margin
nonappendiculate, striate (0.3±R);
universal veil absent.
stipe
exannulate; universal veil saccate,
rather robust, gray on inner surface, white on
exterior surface and not graying when crushed.
Each spore data set is intended to comprise a set of measurements from a single specimen made by a single observer;
and explanations prepared for this site talk about specimen-observer pairs associated with each data set.
Combining more data into a single data set is non-optimal because it obscures observer differences
(which may be valuable for instructional purposes, for example) and may obscure instances in which
a single collection inadvertently contains a mixture of taxa.
