The specimen is in accordance with Epithele interrupta Bres. by the presence of skeletal hyphae and fusiform, rough basidiospores. When observed in KOH, basidiospores appear thick-walled and smooth, but the rough spore surface can be better observed in Melzer’s reagent. Epithele interrupta was originally described from Congo (Mayidi) and according to Hjortstam & Ryvarden (2005, 2007a) the species is not with certainty known from South America.
