thoroughly examined (for example, for microscopic details) and marks other places in the text
where data is missing or uncertain.
The following material is based on the collectors' annotations of the fresh material and original research of R. E. Tulloss. |

| lamellae |
adnate, crowded, color??, with fimbriate yellow edge; lamellulae truncate. |
| stipe |
90 - 130 × 8 - 10 mm, lemon yellow at apex, otherwise white with lemon yellow floccose zones, subcylindric; context yellow, hollow; partial veil apical, membranous, flaring, soon appressed to stipe, soon brownish orange; universal veil as saccate volva, white, membranous. |

55 - 80 μm thick; with gelatinized suprapellis 20 - 35 μm thick, with largely ungelatinized subpellis orangish yellow and 30 - 50 μm thick; filamentous hyphae ?? μm wide, ??; refractive hyphae sordid yellow, 1.4 - 3.9 &mum; thick in scattered fragments. |

| basidiospores |
[40/2/1] (8.5-) 8.7 - 11.2 (-12.1) × (5.9-) 6.0 - 7.4 (-8.2) μm, (L = 9.3 - 10.1 μm; L' = 9.7 μm; W = 6.5 - 6.8 μm; W' = 6.7 μm; Q = (1.31-) 1.34 - 1.67 (-1.83); Q = 1.44 - 1.49; Q' = 1.46), hyaline, predominantly colorless, some faintly yellow, smooth, thin-walled, mono- or multiguttulate, ellipsoid or elongate, usually adaxially flattened; apiculus sublateral, cylindric. |
