Measured against a calibrated microscope scale. Measured on the full microscope frame, not the cropped view.
shape: nearly spheroidal to slightly ovoid in projection. symmetry: radial to weakly ovoid; no bilateral division visible. apertures: one possible marginal pore-like/annulate area near the lower edge, but not sharply resolved. size estimate: measured 78.6 × 58.8 µm, approximate ±10-15%. wall structure: thick, refractive outer wall or optical halo; layering not fully resolved. edge definition: mostly distinct but softened by focus and halo. surface texture: finely granular to scabrate; no prominent spines visible. pores or furrows: possible single pore; furrows not visible. internal contents: dense granular contents obscuring internal detail. color and staining: strong orange-pink to red staining with darker reddish internal granularity. septation or chains: no septation or chains visible. other notable features: large solitary grain; no sacci, transverse septa, hyphae, fibre structure, or mineral-like angular facets visible
