Lamellae: Deeply decurrent; distant; intervenose in mature specimens; white; edges concolorous.
Stipe: 30-50mm x 5-8mm; Cylindrical to slightly flattened; tapering towards base; dry; white with pale salmon-pink tint at base.
Spores: 8.5-9.5um x 5.5-6.5um; Ellipsoid; white in deposit.
Basidia: 4 spored; 50-53um x 6-7um.

Similar to Hygrophorus involutus although the spores in this collection are larger, the basidiomes are hygrophanous and the young specimens do not have a strongly inrolled margin, also the lamellae in H. involutus are crowded.
