No description available.
Hydropus trichoderma is a small, saprotrophic mushroom with a delicate, slender stipe and a pale, convex cap that grows on decaying woody debris in forest habitats.

Its Endangered status reflects rarity and the decline of undisturbed, mature forest with adequate deadwood.
