This fungus is pale yellow-capped and white-fleshed. It has white spores that are about 7 um in diameter, including their spiny fringe. The cap of the mature specimen was 4.5 cm in diameter, and deeply funnel-shaped with an arched margin. The young specimen was button-shaped. The gills were decurrent to the stem, white in the young specimen and at maturity, and were of many different lengths. The central stipe had a dry surface and fragile consistency. It was 1.5 cm thick and 2.5 cm long in the mature specimen. No volva or ring was present, but the cap edge was delicately bearded, more noticeably in the young specimen. The cap was very glutinously slimy. Flesh excreted milk-like fluid when broken which quickly turned neon yellow. Hymenial cross-sections showed basidia with four sterigmata and longer cystidia with narrowed finger-like tips. The fungus was found in a group of three or so on a rotting stump. It smelled and tasted mild and mushroomy.
