Subhymenial hyphae thin-walled, tortuous, clamped, parallel to contextual hyphae; producing basidia as side branches; cells to 25 × 1.5-3 µm. Basidia short and narrow (15-25 × 4-6 µm) with a small, basal clamp connection, 4-6-sterigmate; sterigmata to 4 µm long, spindly, slightly incurved, easily collapsed. No differentiated sterile elements in hymenium. Spores ovoid to ellipsoid, smooth, thin-walled, aguttulate to 1-2-guttulate, 4.5-7.7 × 1.8-3.2 µm.
