Hymenial surface Pale Smoke Gray, smooth, minutely pilose due to projecting cys-tidia, not cracked; margin concolorous, arachnoid. Hyphal system monomitic; hyphae nodose-septate. Subiculum uniform, composed of medullary layer, with rather loose texture; hyphae ± horizontal next to substratum, somewhat vertical near subhymenium, colorless, rather distinct, 2.5-5 μm diam., thin-walled. Hymenial layer not clearly differentiated, with rather dense texture. Crystals scattered throughout section. Cystidia numerous, projecting, not encrusted, tubular, with swollen bases and narrow apices, 60-140 × 8-6 μm, thin- or slightly thick-walled. Capitate cystidial elements occasionally present, 20-30 × 6 μm, thin-walled. Basidia subutriform or subcylindrical, guttulate, (20-) 23-32 (-35) × 6-7.5 μm, 4-sterigmate.
