Aside from the fact that C lanata is almost always on the lower side of a leaf while C furva is apparently always on the upper side, the two can be distinguished by the stiffer, sparser, more darkly red/brown hairs of C furva, which often appear in messy clumps of more than 4 globs. C lanata is whiter and fluffier and tends to be in clumps of 1-3 strongly overlapping globs.
