Cystolepiota sistrata is a small, distinctive species often found in grassy areas like lawns and parklands during the warmer months. Typically, their caps are white with a granular or powdery texture, and they sport gills under the cap which release spores into the air. Their presence contributes significantly to ecosystem nutrient cycles by decomposing organic material.
