Flesh very firm; white to slightly yellowish. Latex white, but in the collection shown turning slowly green on a glass slide overnight (see Comment), copious. Taste hot. Spores ellipsoid, 7-8(9) x 5.5-6.5(7)µ; ornamented with fine, rather small warts less than 0.5µ in height connected by very faint lines. Deposit pale cream. Habitat in mixed woodlands.

Comment This collection agreed well with most concepts of the species except for the greening milk.
