Serpula himantioides forms soft, flat, irregularly wrinkled, membranous fan-like fruit bodies up to 5 cm across. The outer edge of the fruit body is white to cream and smooth but pore-like ridges progressively appear away from the edge and these darken to orange-brown. Light to dark brown coloured spores is produced all year round on the convoluted maze of ridges.
