Abstract
Mature Basidiomata annual, pileate, stipitate, dimidiate, applanate, woody to corky when dried, homogenous context structure, pileus maroon to liver brown when dry, surface hard and glabrous, margin rounded, thickened, maroon to liver brown when dry. Stipe substibe (>5 cm), lateral, columnar, with one solitary column, maroon; borders with hymenophore thickened. Pore surface smooth, creamy to snuff brown when dry, pores 4-6 per mm, round to somewhat irregular and slightly elongated, 105-247 x 76-207 ?m (av. 167.2 x 123.8 ?m; SD 32, 26; n = 100), dissepiments 44-152 ?m (av. 83.6 ?m; SD 23; n = 100); tubes 0.1-0.7 mm long, dark brown. Hyphal system dimitic; generative hyphae slightly inconspicuous, branched, thin-walled, and hyaline; skeletal hyphae most prevalent in the basidiocarp, occasionally branched, pale to dark brown, 2.5-7 ?m thick, tapering towards the end.
