Overview | |
Plasmodium yellow. Sporocarps clustered, usually in large colonies, globose, ovoid or obpyriform, 0.5-1 mm diam., pendent on thin, strand-like stalks, rarely sessile. Hypothallus dull red, inconspicuous. Stalks pallid, yellowish or tawny, weak, branched, often prostrate. Sporothecae blue-grey, iridescent violet, or cinereous. Peridium iridescent, hyaline or white when empty, smooth, rugulose or netted. Capillitium delicate, uniform, open, white. Spore-mass dull blackish brown. Spores either free or loosely aggregated into clusters which readily fall apart, globose, distinctly warted over the entire surface but sometimes more strongly on one side, usually bright violet-brown, sometimes darker, 10-14 µm diam.
