Description


Tubaria furfuracea, commonly known as the scurfy twiglet, totally tedious tubaria, or fringed tubaria, is a common species of agaric fungus in the family Tubariaceae.

Taxonomy: It was first described by Christiaan Hendrik Persoon in 1801, as a species of Agaricus. French mycologist Claude-Casimir Gillet transferred it to the genus, Tubaria in 1876.

 The mushroom cap is 1–4 cm wide, orange-brown, convex to flat and depressed, with small marginal patches of veil which disappear with age or rain; its odor is mild. The gills are brown and adnate to slightly decurrent. The stalk is 1–6 cm tall and 2–4 mm wide. The spores are pale reddish-brown, elliptical, and smooth. The spore print is brown.

This species is considered inedible.

Similar species: Similar species include T. confragosa, T. conspersa, and members of Laccaria.

Additionally, Galerina marginata and Psilocybe cyanescens may appear similar.
