There is nothing to show, I am tiny, I have a few millimeters, but I am beautiful. I grow mainly on poplar branches in late autumn and winter. Value: inedible (because few can see me)

The mushrooms have the shape of an irregular tube covered with hairs. Length max. 2 mm. They grow in the depressions of the Populus bark. Brown, smooth spores are visible under the microscope.
