562 THE REV. M. J. BERKELEY AND MB. C. E. liROOME 



There are two different species sent under the same number, 

 with spores '0003 ; but we are unable to cbaracterize them 



without figures. 



314. C. PLiCATiLis, Fr. (No. 715, cum icone.) 

 On the groimd. Peradeniya, Aug -Sept. 1868. 

 Spores '0003--00045 by •0002--00035. 



315. BoLBiTius Fissus, JB. ^' Br. Pileo e campanulato umbonato 

 , piano paUido striate raargine fisso; stipite fistuloso sursum at- 

 tenuate 1. subsequah candido; lamellis ventricosis argillaceis (no. 931, 

 cum icone). 



On dung. Peradeniya, Jan. 1869, 



Pileus n-lf across, very pale gilvous, ut first campanulate, papil- 

 lato-umbonate, then plane; margin striate, splitting; flesh very thin, 

 except in the centre; stem 1^-2^ inches high, incrassated at the 

 base, nearly equal, fistulose, white ; gills clay-coloured, ventricose, 

 rounded behind, nearly free ; spores ovate. '0003 long. 



It has not the slightest gamboge-yellow tint. 



316. IIygrophorus cinerascens, J5. ^-.Br. Pileo irregular! fle: 



depresso glabro Isevi suhcincreo ; stipite sursum dilatato compresso 

 e farcto cavo albo; lamellis ventricosis decurrentibus albidis (no. 1198, 

 cum icone). 



On the ground. July 1869. 



Subcrespitose ; pileus f-l| inch across, undulated, irregular, even, 

 smooth, pale cinereous ; flesh brownish, especially towards the mar- 

 gin ; stem J inch high, | thick at the apex, l^ line at the base, 

 stuffed, then hollow, compressed, white, smooth ; gills white, or dirty 

 white, shghtly ventricose, trvUy decurrent, *0003 by "00015. 



317. H. MULTICOLOR, B, ^ Br. Pileo convexo umbonato glabro, 

 raargine tenui estriato livido, came cserulescente ; stipite subrequali 

 flexuoso anguste cavo ; lamellis ventricosis lividis adnato deciurenti- 

 bus (no. 899, cum icone). 



On the ground, Jan. 1869. 



Pileus % inch across, greenish, shaded with pink, umbonate; flesh 

 blue; stem 1^ inch high, 1 line thick, with a narrow cavity, flexu- 

 ous, somewhat attenuated at the base, greenish above, straw-coloured 

 below ; gills ventricose, greenish, adnate, decurrent. 



Analogous to H. psitt acinus. This is perhaps another repre- 

 sentative of Fries's second section, and, indeed, mahes a near ap- 

 proach to Hygroeybe. 



318. H. L^TUS, Ft. (No. 1209, cum icone.) 

 On the ground. July 1869. 



Spores -OOOSS-'OOOi long by •00025--0003 wide.
