Notes:
Cap pellucid striate towards margin (say 50%), margin paler, with veil remnants.
Spore print: "date brown".
Basidia: 4-spored.
Spores: 9-10.5/6-6.5, ellipsoid-amygdaliform/
Cheilocystidia: clavate cells ≤15µm wide, occasional fusiform cell.
Pleurocystidia: rare, long projecting above hymenium, narrow.
Spore shape matches Orton’s drawing (from the type material) better than his own collections do! Furthermore Berkeley & Broome were based in the west. Orton’s colour ("amber") is presumably an error for "umber" and has been copied by K. van Waveren.
