Pileus 8-10.5 cm broad, plano-convex or rarely depressed on disc, dry, violet brown (11F5-4) to light grayish pink (no good match). Flesh white, slowly pinkish fuscous, with pungent odor, and mild taste. Tubes adnexed, pale yellowish to pinkish flesh color, pale bluish green at first then red becoming black when bruised; pores likewise. Stipe 4-5 cm long, 2-2.5 cm broad, short clavate-ventricose and pinched at base, dry, short reticulate in one, even in other, matted and finely subtomentose to subpruinose and then pale grayish pink, white otherwise. One appearing to have a zone-like ring/ridge at broadest part of stipe, but under lens this apparently not significant, with white basal mycelium; interior white, solid, changing to pale blue greem. N.B. This looks like a hefty P. sordidus entity. Cyanogranules (+) scattered in pileipellis; hyphae pale brown, narrow, cylindrical, not constricted, not palisadal. Stipitipellis with scattered cyanogranules, narrowly clavate caulocystidia, sometimes blue green or pale brown to hyaline.
