Receptacle 20 × 28 mm, campanulate to thimble-like, with a wide apical pore; and a strongly but shallow reticulated surface, reticulations 1.6–2 × 0.8–1.2 mm. Pseudostipe 60 × 12 mm, cylindrical, spongy, white (N00A00M00); pseudoparenchymatous, composed of globose to elongate-ovoid cells, 18–71 × 10.5–35 µm, hyaline. Indusium well-developed, extending to 2/3 of pseudostipe, white (N00A00M00), 44 mm in length, attached to the apex of the pseudostipe; polygonal to rounded meshes up to 6 × 3 mm. Volva epigeous, whitish (N00A00M00) to pale yellow (N00C00A30), with squamous surface; formed by flamentous hyphae, septate, branched, hyaline, clamp connections present, 2.5–4.5 µm diameter. Rhizomorphs whitish (N00A00M00), composed of filamentous thin-walled hyphae, with clamp connections; with crystal deposits in globose cells distributed amongst the hyphae, 15–17.9 × 14–17 µm.
