Peridium thin, yellow-brown, the operculum translucent yellow-brown by TL, covered on the inside with large pale papillae which are often elongated and tubular centrally. Spore-mass pink when fresh, later ochraceous. Spores almost colourless, 9-13 µm diam., thin-walled, with small clusters of spinules visible under oil-immersion.
