On dead nettles.
Wholly white, remarkably plane, with a small dimple in the centre of the
hymenium, which, in old age, assumes a yellowish tinge. The external surface
is covered with white hairs, which form a beautiful ciliated margin,
not in the least raised. The margin is so regular, th at if there had been
fewer cilia it might have been called pectinate.— Grev.
