shape: ellipsoidal to cylindrical, slightly constricted at the middle. symmetry: bilateral across the central transverse axis. wall structure: thick, continuous, distinct outer wall with a prominent medial septum. edge definition: sharp and distinct. surface texture: smooth. internal contents: dense, opaque dark granular contents. color and staining: naturally dark brown or golden-brown (dematiaceous), no apparent uptake of pink/magenta stain. septation or chains: 1-septate; a single, clear, thick transverse septum divides the spore into two roughly equal cells. other notable features: one end appears slightly flattened, possibly indicating an attachment scar (hilum), though no distinct stalk is present
