(illustrated 40% life size) Cap 0.5–2cm across, hemispherical then broadly bell-shaped; bright ochre-brown and distinctly striate when moist, drying pale yellow. Stem 30–60×1–2mm; ochraceous, with white, silky fibres when young. Flesh yellowish; taste and smell not distinctive. Gills adnate; yellowish, paler than cap. Spores 9–13×5–6.5¼, elliptical, smooth.
