Tubaria conspersa, sometimes called the Felted Twiglet, is a small agaric with a cream-brown to cinnamon-brown cap that is often finely hairy or scurfy, especially when young, and pale brown gills that are adnate to slightly decurrent. It typically appears in small groups or scattered, growing on decaying wood, woody debris, or well-rotted stumps, often partially buried in leaf litter in woodland and other damp, shaded habitats.

Cap at first it is hemispherical, then it becomes convex, later flattening out and remaining umbonate with age. The colour ranges from cream-brown to light brown, brown, orange-brown, reddish-brown, and grey-brown. When dry it is much paler, whitish with a reddish sheen. Even when young it is entirely covered with white, scaly remnants of the veil. In wet weather it becomes translucently striate up to the middle. The skin extends beyond the margin and is fringed. Gills distant and much the same colour as the cap, adnate or slightly decurrent. Stem cylindrical, becoming smooth with age. It is whitish-grey to light brown, fibrous-scaly, and very coarse. Towards the base it is darker grey to brown, with a white velvety covering from the mycelium. Occasionally it has a white scaly ring zone. Spore print ochre brown.

Microscopic Features: Spores are ellipsoidal, smooth, and measure 7–10 × 4–6 µm.
