;
be A. piiUm, to wliicb Fries refers it. I t is probably Hygrophorus
ungiiinosus.
] 03. A. (Collybia) velntipes, ^ Curt.; pileus thin, fleshy,
convex, then plane, obtuse, smooth, viscid; stem stuffed, velvety,
rooting, dark-bay; gills adnexed, distant, yellowish.—
FI. Loud. t. 70; Huss. i. t. 56.
On logs and trunks of trees. Extremely common during
the greater part of the year, and even resisting considerable
frost. One of our most beautiful species, from its tawny
pileus aud dark velvety stem. Often densely tufted.
104. A. (CoUybia) stipitarius, F r .; small; pilous thin, umbilicate,
plane, clothed with little velvet-like scales; stem at
length fistulöse, bright brown, more or less hairy ; gills separating,
at length free, ventricose, rather distant, white.
(Plate 5, fig. 6 .)—Huss. i. t. 6 8.
On grass, old thatch, twigs, etc. A very pretty little species,
with the habit of a Marasmius, but the gills of an Agaric.
Pileus clothed with tawny or brown hairs or fibres, which
sometimes form scales.
105. A. (CoUybia) confluens, P . ; pileus slightly fleshy,
convex, at length expanded, obtuse, flaccid, smooth, hygrophanous;
stem fistulöse, somewhat compressed, rufous, clothed
with white pulverulent down; gills free, remote, linear, very
crowded, dirty-white.—Pers. Ic. Piet. t. 5 ./. 1.
Amongst leaves, in woods, forming rings or confluent masses.
Common. Pileus about an inch across, reddish-brown. Gills
leaving a distinct area round the top of the stem. Stems adhering
to each other.
106. A. (Collybia) ingratns, RcAwm.; pileus slightly fleshy,
at first globose, then campanulate, convex, umbonate, even;
stem fistulöse, long, twisted, somewhat compressed, between
pulverulent and downy, especially above, umber below; gills
free, linear, very crowded, pale.
Var. pileus convex, obtuse; stem villoso-pulverulent.
In woods. Difiers principally from tlie foregoing in tlie
gills not leaving a free space round the top of the stem. My
species agrees more closely with the figure in the Stockholm
collection than with Fries’s character, as the whole stem is
more or less pulverulent. The pileus, moreover, is not so
truly campanulate. I have set it down, therefore, as a
variety.
107. A. (Collybia) undatus. Berk.; pilous tough, thin,
radiato-rugosc, minutely pulverulent, campanulate, then convex,
at length plane; stem minutely velvety, strigose at the
base, fistulöse; gills adnate, white, with a yellowish tinge,
connected with veins.
On dead fern-roots. Northamptonshire. Pileus not exceeding
an inch across, dull brown or cinereous. Gills moderately
distant.
108. A. (Collybia) oonigenus, P. ; pileus slightly fleshy,
nearly plane, unequal, somewhat umbonate, smooth; stem
minutely fistulöse, tough, pulverulent, boooming pallid; root
strigose; gills free, linear, very crowded, pallid.
On fir-cones. Not very uncommon. Pileus about 1 inch
across, reddish-brown at first, pallid when dry; gills white at
first. This must not be confounded with A. tenacellus.
109. A. (Collybia) eirrhatus, Rc/ittm.; white; pileus slightly
fleshy, plane, minutely silky, at length umbilicate; stem
slightly fistulöse, flexuose, equal, pallid, pulverulent; root
twisted, fibrillose; gills adnate, crowded, narrow.
Amongst leaves, e tc.; often attached to a little, yellowish,
nodular Sclerotium. I ’cry nearly allied to the next.
110. A. (Collybia) tuberosus, Bull. ; white, slightly fleshy,
convex, then expanded, umbonate, even, shining with a silky
lustre; stern slightly fistulöse, obsoletely pulverulent; root
