DC602E0FFFD24B72FF51F9033F31FE65.taxon	description	Basidiomata: — Basidiomata annual, terrestrial, centrally to eccentrically stipitate, solitary or a few confluent. Pilei semicircular to circular, applanate with a depressed center, margin initially reflexed, turning incurved and wavier upon drying, up to 4 cm in diam and 4 mm thick at the center. Pileal surface saffron (1 B 7) when juvenile, sulphur-yellow (1 A 4) to buff (2 A 3) when mature with irregular yellow (1 A 5) or white (1 A 1) patches, becoming olivaceous buff (3 B 4) to grayish brown (5 D 5) when dry, smooth, azonate. Pore surface white (1 A 1) when fresh, becoming cream (2 A 2) to buff (2 A 3) when dry; pores circular to angular, 3 – 5 per mm; dissepiments thin, entire. Context thick at center, sharply thinning towards margin, white (1 A 1) when fresh, cream (2 A 2), and brittle when dry, up to 2.4 mm thick. Tubes concolorous with pore surface, brittle when dry, decurrent, up to 1.6 mm long. Stipe straw-yellow (2 A 4) when fresh, grayish-brown (5 D 5) when dry, up to 2.8 cm long, 7 mm in diam. Hyphal structure: — Hyphal system monomitic; generative hyphae thin- to thick-walled, simple septate. Pileipellis: — Generative hyphae slightly thick-walled, frequently branched, interwoven, simple septate, IKI +, CB –, 3 – 8 μm in diam, sometimes inflated up to 12 μm in diam; shapeless oily substance exuding from the hyphae, becoming dark bluish gray in KOH and yellowish brown to reddish brown in Melzer’s reagent; gloeoplerous hyphae abundant, thick-walled, 3 – 8 μm in diam, sometimes inflated up to 13 μm in diam. Context: — Generative hyphae hyaline, slightly thick- to distinctly thick-walled, frequently branched, interwoven, simple septate, IKI –, CB –, 3 – 12 μm in diam, sometimes inflated up to 15 μm in diam; gloeoplerous hyphae infrequent, slightly thick- to thick-walled, 3 – 12 μm in diam, sometimes inflated up to 16 μm in diam.
