The gills are attached to the stem, crowded, pale gray, slightly decurrent.
The stem is one to two inches long, stuffed, then hollow, apex mealy, equal, gray.
It differs from C. ditopa in being inodorous and having a thicker and depressed pileus.
The caps are quite smooth and are frequently concentrically cracked or wrinkled, much as in Clitopilus noveboracensis.
It is found growing on leaves in mixed woods, after a rain, in August and September. When young the margin is incurved but wavy in age. It is quite a hardy plant.
