[1] It was first formally named in 2019.
The species has small golden yellow fruiting bodies resembling unrelated agarics in the Hygrophoraceae or Mycenaceae, with slightly slippery caps and a frosted yellowish stipe.
The spores are slightly amyloid and the tissues of the fruitbodies have sarcodimitic construction.
