ox THE FUNGI OF CKTLOX. 509 



Pileus I inch across, at first subcampanulate, then plano-convex, nm- 

 bonate, tawny, rough, with little pulverulent specks : stem flexuous, 

 nearly equal, 1^ inch high, nearly 1 line thick, tawny, stuffed with 

 white ; gills more than a line broad, ventricose, slightly tinged with 

 tawny ; spores oblong, 0003' long. 



Allied to the last, but, judging from the dried specimens^ ap- 

 parently distinct. 



54. A. (Lepiota) polyglomus, B, Sf Br. Pileo subhemisphaerico 

 verrucis erectis pallidis obsito ; stipite recto rufo furfuraceo albo- 

 farcto ; lamelHs latis postice truncatis rufulis (no. 907 cum icone). 



On the ground. Jan. 1869, 



Pileus 1 inch across, subhemispherlcal, pale, clothed, especially in the 

 centre, with erect pyramidal warts ; stem I-I5 inch high, 1 line 

 thick, nearly equal, reddish, stuffed, furfuraceous ; gills nearly 2 lines 

 broad, truncate and sinuated behind, dark-rufous when dry; spores 

 •0002' long. 



Allied to A. granulosics. 



55. A. (Lepiota) citrophyllus, B. ^- Br. Pileo obtuso vel late 

 umbonato demum depress© citrino squaraulis variis rufis obsito j sti- 

 pite citrino e farcto cavo squamuloso ; lamellis ventricosis postice 

 rotundatis vel attenuatis approximatis citrinis (no. 821 cum icone). 



On the ground, Peradeniya, Nov. 1868, Jan. 1869. 



Several forms of this species occur : — 



a. Campanulate, with transverse scales on the pileus, and a squamulose 

 stem attenuated and slightly rooting at the base, or abrupt, with the 

 scales less decidedly transverse, and the gills attenuated behind. 



J. Pileus plane, then depressed, the margin striate, slightly squamu- 

 lose in the centre or dotted ; stem reddish without and within, gills 

 rather remote, rounded behind, broad (no. 824 cum icone). 



c. Pileus hemispherical, minutely squamulose; stem smooth, even, 

 rather sunk into the pileus ; gills rounded behind, here and there 

 tinged with green (no. 1174 cum icone). This looks more distinct 



than the others. 



d. Pileus convex, strongly umbonate ; stem fibrillose, dilated at the 

 base ; gills rounded behind. In all the spores are obliquely ovate, 

 0003' long (no. 1188 cum icone). 



€. Pileus campanulate, broadly umbonate, floccosej gills attenuated 



behind, yellow. No. 883» stains even the 



fastened bright yellow. 

 No. 881. Peradeniya, Oct. 1868. 



** Yellowish, clouded with ferruginous; gills yellow," seems to differ 

 >m the rest in more oblong spores, 00025' long. 



Nearly allied to A. lepidophorxis, but the general appearance of 



gum
