The fruiting body is star-shaped with 5-9 pointed rays, with earth stuck underneath, and at its centre, a spore sac placed on top of a short and almost invisible stalk, with whitish-beige rays, turning red brown when drying, the spore sac being of the same colour. The fertile surface is internal: the spores are released as dust when mature. The spore print is dark brown.It grows on the ground, in broad-leaved woods, on sandy grounds, with spruce. The fruiting period takes place from July to December.
