Tubaria conspersa, commonly known as the felted twiglet,[1] is a species of mushroom in the genus Tubaria. It grows on duff and woody debris.[2]
Taxonomy and distribution
Tubaria conspersa was first described in 1800 by Christiaan Hendrik Persoon as Agaricus conspersus. In 1889, Victor Fayod transferred it into the genus Tubaria.[1] While Tubaria conspersa is found in both Europe and the Pacific Northwest, the European and Pacific Northwestern species are thought to be distinct.[2]
Description
The convex to flat cap of Tubaria conspersa is about 7 millimeters to 2.5 centimeters in diameter. It is tannish in color, and the gills are adnate.[2] The scaly stipe is the same color as the cap[3] The spore print is pale brown.[2]
