Chromocyphella muscicola is a species of fungus in the family Chromocyphellaceae.^[2] Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are cyphelloid, cup-shaped, about 4 mm across, with an upper surface covered with fine hairs and a smooth underside.^[3]

It was first described as Cyphella muscicola by Elias Fries in 1822,^[4][5] and was transferred to the newly erected genus, Chromocyphella, in 1959 by Marinus Anton Donk.^[4][6]
