Tubaria confragosa is a species of fungus that belongs to the family Tubariaceae. It has a convex to flat cap, 1-4 cm in diameter, with a reddish-brown to yellowish-brown color and a smooth to slightly scaly surface. The gills are adnate to emarginate, crowded, and pale brown to reddish-brown. The stem is cylindrical, 1-4 cm long, and 0.2-0.6 cm thick, with a similar color to the cap. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, Tubaria confragosa typically grows in groups on soil, moss, or decaying wood in coniferous and mixed forests, often in areas with rich organic matter and moderate humidity, from July to October.
Mushrooms of the species Tubaria confragosa were observed in various locations throughout Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia. On July 23, 2017, they were found on a tree stump near Pesochnaya and in moss in the same area. The gills of the mushrooms were also examined near Pesochnaya. Later, on August 1, 2017, they were spotted in a forest near Okhta River in Toksovo. Further observations were made on September 18, 2017, at a forest cutting under power lines near Dibuny, and again on August 30, 2018, near Orekhovo, approximately 45 miles north of Saint Petersburg. The species was also referred to as Ringed Tubaria mushrooms in some instances, highlighting its distinctive ring feature. These observations suggest that Tubaria confragosa is present in the region's forests and woodlands during the summer and early fall months.
