 Description: Basidiocarp resupinate, effuse, adnate, membranaceous or subceraceous, 50-120 μm thick in section. Hymenial surface yellowish gray, smooth, cracked; margin thinning, concolorous, pruinose. Hyphal system monomitic; hyphae nodose-septate. Subiculum fairly uniform, composed of basal layer, with compact texture; hyphae brownish, mainly horizonal, usually glued together, 2.5-5 μm diam., ± thick-walled. Hymenium ± thickening, with compact texture; hyphae colorless, mainly vertical, rather indistinct, thin-walled. Lamprocystidia usually immersed, heavily encrusted, conical, colorless or slightly brown, 20-45 × 8-15 μm (encrustation included), with 1-2.5 μm thick walls. Gloeocystidia numerous, brownish towards bases, cylindrical with narrower apices, slightly flexuous, 40-90 × 7-14 μm, thick-walled towards bases, slightly SA+. Basidia subclavate, 24-33 × 5.5-7 μm, 4-sterigmate. Basidiospores ellipsoid, adaxially slightly concave, smooth, thin-walled, 8-10.2 × 3-4.2 μm, IKI-, CB-.

 Note: Remarks: Peniophora pseudonuda differs from P. nuda (Fr.) Bres. in having thicker basal layer of the Basidiocarp and broader basidiospores, additionally has comparatively longer and narrower gloeocystidia. It also resembles P. fissilis Boidin et al., but differs in having obtuse apices of the gloeocystidia, and has slightly larger basidiospores.
