title: Morphological and cytochemical characterization of spores and gills of Lepista sordida (Fungi: Basidiomycota).
abstract: Some ultrastructural and cytochemical aspects of Lepista sordida are described. Basidiospores with verruculose and irregular ornamentations were observed through scanning electron microscopy. Confocal microscopy indicated that most of them exhibited a single large lipid body, no acidic vesicles and nucleus localized in the cell periphery.
