Notes:

Smell: chlorine (swimming baths), quite strong but short-lived, immediately after damage.

Hymenium composed of hyaline septate hyphae up to 200x8µm, these are immature and could be asci or paraphyses. The septa have a small central structure visible under x40 objective. No sign of spores, shed or immature, not even singletons in three preps, even though the fruitbody appeared past its best.
