Flesh whitish, fibrous, solid, (water soaked looking in many). Surface whitish, faintly striaste and with a matt powdery bloom arranged in cross rows above the ring. Tending brownish esp. when handled and with loose surface fibrils below ring. Ring superior, whitish, membranous, coloured above from the spores, soon disappearing.
