Rhodocybe is a small genus of small and medium-sized brownish-pink spored mushrooms.
Rhodocybes are
saprotrophic and most grow on the ground, but some are found on wood. Most are drab in appearance, though some have vivid colors. The cap shape can be convex, plane, or depressed. The gills usually have to attachment, rarely and the stems of the mushrooms in this genus are highly variable, always lacking a veil or volva. The spores are flesh colored to salmon to brownish pink. Microscopically the spores are angular when viewed on end; when viewed from the side the spores are bumpy.
