MICROSCOPY & ID BY DJANGO GROOTMYERS Growing abundantly on a well-rotted hardwood log. Rhizomorphs present that the margins of the hymenium and sclerotia attached to these rhizomorphs. Hymenium even to merulioid when fresh and not staining with 1M KOH. All structures inamyloid. Monomitic with clamped generative hyphae. Cystidia and hyphidia absent. Basidia terminal, clavate and 4-sterigmate. Basidia measurements: (10.4) 11.3 - 16 (16.8) Ã- 3 - 4.2 (4.5) µm, Q = (2.7) 2.9 - 4.1 (4.2); N = 16, Me = 13.2 Ã- 3.8 µm; Qe = 3.5. Spores smooth and thin-walled. Spore measurements: (3.7) 4.1 - 5.3 (5.8) Ã- 1.4 - 1.8 (2.2) µm, Q = (1.9) 2.4 - 3.5 (3.8); N = 30, Me = 4.6 Ã- 1.6 µm; Qe = 2.8
