Spore shape: Globular or subglobular
Spore surface: Smooth or perhaps finely warted due a certain cloudiness in some slides at different focal ranges.
Oil bodies: One huge guttule at the centre occupying almost all the spore content, sometimes slightly eccentrical.

Peridial hair: 6um thick, irregularly curved or subangular (obtuse angles) with rounded knobs or small lobe-like structures, septate.
Peridial cells: 15–22um across; squarish with rounded corners or subglobose-ovoid, quite irregular but more or less equidistant axis (long as wide), dark brown.
Sterile hyphae: Hyaline, profusely branched, mesh network, apparently finely pitted, septate. Apparently with small guttulae in hyphal content. Margin straigh or slightly irregular.
