 underside of fallen logs. When moist dirty ferruginous passing 

 to mulberry colour. Bigid when dry, adnate, with margin 

 broadly free all round, and more or less lobed, or free and 

 reflexed above, rugulose. Hymenium ferruginous with a purple 

 or vinous tinge, or sometimes obscure cinnamon, often minutely 

 cracked in lines radiating from the centre, or from several start- 

 ing points in broadly effused specimens.
