Specimen notes
Public Note:
The white surface tomentum is chalky and deciduous, consisting of very fine crystals (2um x 0.1) loosely attached to the surface hairs. When re-hydrated the fruitbodies open up to become nearly cup shaped. They are brown rather than black/brown and the white hairs transparent due to the fluid film, which quickly become white, opaque again as the film evaporates. The spores are inamyloid and very thin-walled, collapsing/mis-shaped easily, cylndrical, length=8.1-9.8µm (µ=8.8, σ=0.44), width=4.4-6.3µm (µ=5.0, σ=0.39), Q=1.4-2.1µm (µ=1.77, σ=0.17), n=34. The terminal hairs in the observed mount did not appear to be branched or circinate or ramealis, although Cunningham figures them that way. See also PDD92596 for discussion on this and R. incanum.

Public Note:
From thesis: Fruit Bodies: cyphelloid, globose or depressed-globose, small (250-550 um in diameter), aggregated in groups of up to 80 on a common white subiculum. Subiculum made of felty, white hyphae that are loosely attached to the substrate and densely packed, up to 160 um thick. Cups in individual depressions in the subiculum, separated by a wall of dense, loosely-woven hyphae. Cups almost black when dry, covered in a dense mat of white hairs, becoming less distinct with age. When rehydrated, cups a dark brown-black (almost black) with surface hairs much less pronounced. Pileal surface containing cylindrical hyphae with short finger-like projections at the tips and encrusting crystals. Pileal flesh gelatinous, hyaline, hyphae with clamp connections. Hymenophoral trama gelatinous with hyphae running parallel to the hymenium, light yellow-brown to brown. Hymenium hyaline, composed of branching hyphae and a dense layer of basidia, basidioles, and paraphyses. Basidia: 4-spored, clavate, hyaline in KOH, (19-)20.2-24(-25) x (6.0-)6.5-7.5(-8.0) um Cystidia: none observed. Spores: hyaline, inamyloid, smooth-walled, oblong, (5.5-)6.2-8.6(-9.1) x (2.5-)3.0-5.0(-5.3) um. Substrate ecology: on rotting wood of dicot trees; observed on Leptospermum and Nothofagus Distribution: New Zealand Holotype: PDD 4392 (!); collected on Leptospermum ericoides in Auckland, New Zealand in November 1945 by G.H. Cunningham.
