Galerina tibiicystis is a small to medium-sized agaric fungus that grows in clusters on decaying wood. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, it has been found to typically fruit in late summer to early autumn, often on birch and aspen logs. The cap is 1-3 cm in diameter, bell-shaped to convex, and reddish-brown to yellowish-brown in color. The gills are adnexed to almost free, and the stem is slender and cylindrical, measuring 2-5 cm long and 0.2-0.5 cm thick. It is a relatively rare species in the region, but can be locally common in suitable habitats.
