. The stalks are short or absent and often appear to be polished black. The sporothecae are oval, rounded at the apex and dark brown. A persistent peridium at the base of the sporotheca has a single layer that is partly evanescent; the peridium is dark black, with a dehiscence that is apical and irregular. The columella usually arrives at the apex of the sporotheca, fused with the capillitium. The internal net of the capillitium consists of thick threads with several, usually large, expansions at the junctions; mostly exceeding 50 μm, typically in the form of thin threads without free ends. A mass of dark brown spores, 11–14 μm in diameter, are densely, evenly and minutely warted.
