 Description: Basidiocarp resupinate, effuse, adnate, context up to ca. 150 μm thick in section. Hymenial surface ivory yellow, poroid; margin thinning, white, filamentose. Pores  angular, 5-7 per mm; dissepiments fairly thin; tubes ca. 100 μm deep. Hyphal system monomitic; hyphae nodose-septate. Context with fairly loose texture; hyphae ± horizontal, colorless, 1.3-2.5 μm diam., thin-walled, abundantly covered with minute crystals. Cystidia lacking. Cystidioles numerous, ovate or fusoid, thin-walled. Basidia subclavate, 8-12 × 4-5 μm, 4-sterigmate. Basidiospores subglobose, 2.6-3.2 × 2.3-2.8 μm, with a distinct oil-drop, slightly thick-walled, IKI–, CB–.

 Note: The Taiwanese collection fairly resembles Ceriporiopsis mucida, but several features somewhat deviate from those of the species which was described by Gilbertson and Ryvarden (1986). Pores of hymenial surface are 5-7 per mm in the Taiwanese collection, while are 3-5 per mm in C. mucida. Subicular hyphae were described as 2.5-4 μm diam. in C. mucida, but the measurement of the Taiwanese collection is narrower, 1.3-2.5 μm diam. Furthermore, the cystidioles in the Taiwanese collection have never been described for C. mucida. At last, basidiospores are comparatively shorter and broader.
