Basidiocarps very small to medium, solitary to subgregarious. Pileus 14-76 mm, plano- convex to plano-depressed, margin sulcate (0. 10-0. 15 R), entire, disc dark buff, vinaceous buff, or smoky grey, paling to pale yellow, or buff at margin, occasionally slightly fawn appearance, viscid when young or wet, drying with age, volva remnants white to buff, consisting of membranous scales, and/or scattered floccose scurf, occasionally lacking. Lamellae crowded, free, 5-12 mm wide, white, margin entire to laciniate, buff; lamellulae subtruncate to attenuate. Stipe 30-1 10 mm high, 4-24 mm diameter, hollow, from bulbous base, to 34 mm diameter, surface pale buff to honey, occasionally ochreous, smooth, or with floccose fibrils near apex, becoming finely scaled towards base, rarely viscid, basal bulb white to buff, subtomentose, with small, free, membranous limb. Exannulate. Context of pileus white, stained pale luteus to greyish buff beneath pellis, stipe white to pale luteous.

Spore print white. Basidiospores (261 / 16), 7.5-12 x 7.5-12 µm, Q^m 1.03, Q 1.00-1.25, globose to broadly ellipsoid, thin-walled, hyaline, inamyloid. Basidia 42-78 x 10-14. 5 µm, 4-spored, occasionally 1-3-spored, clamped (but these may be difficult to see). Lamella margin cells small, easily disarticulated, globose, elliptic to clavate, hyaline, 16-46 x 6.5-20 µm. Pileipellis consisting of 35-100 µm wide, slightly gelatinised suprapellis, non- gelatinised subpellis. Volva remnants on pileus consisting of abundant long, inflated, hyaline cells up to 214 µm long and 34 µm wide, hyphae, often finely encrusted, clamped, irregularly arranged.
