Description. Basidiomata small-sized. Pileus 7 - 12 mm broad, hemispherical, convex to plano-convex at first, then gradually applanate, becoming depressed at disc when mature, non-striate to weakly striate; margin slightly inflexed at first, soon straight, slightly crenate or lacerate when mature; surface matt, velvety, hygrophanous, greenish gray (or olive gray) to dull green (27 D 2 - 30 D 2, 27 D 3 - 30 D 3, 27 E 2 - 30 E 2, 27 E 3 - 30 E 3), often paler at margin. Flesh 1 - 3 mm thick in the stipe, white to grayish white, unchanging when exposed. Lamellae 1 - 2 mm deep, L = 20 - 34, l = 1 - 3, short to moderately decurrent, white to weakly grayish white (1 A 1 - 1 B 1) at first, white to weakly greenish white (27 A 2 - 30 A 2) when mature, unchanging when bruised; edge entire, concolorous with the sides. Stipe 13 - 25 x 1.5 - 2.5 mm, central, cylindrical and becoming narrower downwards; glabrous and shiny, hardly tomentulose or pruinose, hygrophanous, white to greenish white at first (28 A 1 - 28 A 2, 29 A 1 - 29 A 2), becoming greenish white to light greenish gray (28 A 2 - 28 B 2, 29 A 2 - 29 B 2) when mature and in dry condition. Odor none. Taste mild. Basidiospores [60 / 2 / 2] 4 - 5.5 (- 6) x 3.5 - 4.5 (- 5) μm, av. 4.6 x 3.8 μm, Q = (1.12) 1.14 - 1.28 (1.43), av. Q = 1.21 + / - 0.08, broadly ellipsoid, hyaline, smooth, inamyloid, thin-walled. Basidia 4 - spored, occasionally 2 - spored, (10 -) 15 - 26 (- 30) x 5 - 7 μm, av. 24.5 x 5.8 μm, hyaline, narrowly clavate, attenuated and flexuous toward base, sterigmata up to 4 μm long. Basidioles cylindrical to narrowly clavate, often flexuous, obtuse, (18 -) 20 - 37.5 (- 40) x 6 - 8 μm, av. 23 x 6.8 μm. Pleurocystidia absent. Marginal cells on the lamellar edges not well differentiated, similar to basidioles on lamellar sides. Lamellar trama composed of sub-parallel or occasionally interwoven and irregularly inflated hyphae (23 -) 35 - 50 (- 104) x 4 - 8 (- 10) μm, av. 46.5 x 7 μm. Pileipellis a cutis of numerous repent branched hyphal 4 - 8 μm wide, with terminal chains of ellipsoid or cylindrical cells. Pileus trama composed of cylindrical and occasionally branched hyphae (23 -) 35 - 50 (- 70) x (4 -) 6 - 10 μm, av. 45.5 x 7.6 μm. Stipitipellis formed of parallel, thin-walled and narrow hyphae 3 - 8 μm diam. Caulocystidia not observed. Clamp connections absent in all tissues.
Biology & Conservation

Ecologically, the conservation status of Camarophyllopsis olivaceogrisea is officially designated as Not Evaluated. Current field registries estimate a global population composed of an unquantified number of individuals, making habitat preservation critical to maintaining their wild populations.

It is typically endemic to forest, showing great physiological synergy with its surroundings. In terms of dietary preferences, it relies primarily on a diet of diverse organic matter. It exhibits specialized adaptations centered around a its natural cycle activity pattern, optimizing its energy conservation and interactions within its native ecosystem.

Ongoing biological monitoring and ecological advocacy emphasize the importance of protecting this species. The stability of its food chain and the prevention of fragmentation in its primary range are vital for the continued survival of Camarophyllopsis olivaceogrisea.
