Stalk 0.03-0.06 mm diam., epruinose, reddish-brown, of strictly periclinally arranged, yellowish-brown to pale hyphae. Capitulum obovoid, with porrectulate excipulum and with a distinctive, white, collar-like swelling at base. Other parts of capitulum reddish-brown. Capitulum 0.13-0.22 mm diam. Excipulum laterally c. 25-50 µm thick, densely interspersed with crystals except for hyaline innermost part; lateral parts of anticlinally arranged hyphae; basal part collar-like, surrounding uppermost part of stalk, obtriangular in outline, c. 30-50 µm wide and consisting of hyaline, reticulately branched, anticlinally arranged hyphae. Mazaedium not strongly protruding, pale pink to pale ochraceous, with coarse paraphyses c. 3 µm diam., covered by yellowish, granular crystals. Yellowish or red pigment of the excipulum and hyphae K+ dissolving, soon forming violet-red plate- or needle-like crystals. Hypothecium pale, with flat upper surface.
