Overview |
Sporocarps salmon-pink, grouped on a common thin membranous hypothallus. Calyculus small, shallow funnel-shaped, smooth or densely decorated with large rounded or elongated warts especially near the rim and which are partly united to form a broken net with irregular meshes. Capillitium 3-5 µm diam., with large meshes and few free ends, attached to the calyculus, expanding 1.5 times the original size, densely decorated with spines, half-rings, reticulations and warts, sometimes with bifid tips and up to 1.5 µm high, the basal threads almost smooth. Spore-mass salmon-pink. Spores (6-)8-10(-12) µm diam.
