This plant may be distinguished from the closely related JZ. 
atromarginata Fr. by its smaller size and the purplish tint to the. 
edge of the lamellae, and from JZ. purpurcofusca Pk. by its differ- 
ently shaped, longer spores. 
OMPHALIA SEMIVESTIPES. Pileus very thin, deeply convex or 
subcampanulate, glabrous, grayish-brown in the dried state, paler 
when fresh; lamellae rather broad, distant, arcuate, decurrent, 
white or whitish; stem hollow, white or whitish, the upper half 
glabrous, the lower half clothed with a white mycelioid tomentum ; 
spores elliptical, .0002 to .00024 in. long, .00012 to .00016 broad. 
Pileus 6 to 12 lines broad; stem about 1 in. long, 1 to 2 lines 
thick.

This plant is apparently related to such species as O. setipes 
Fr. and O. grisea Fr. and belongs to the tribe Mycenariae. _It is 
easily recognized by the peculiar character of the stem. In the 
dried examples the upper glabrous part of the stem is shriveled 
and longitudinally striate, but the lower tomentose part is plump 
and even as in the fresh plant. 
HyGropuorus ELEGANTULUS. Pileus convex or nearly plane, 
glabrous, viscid, grayish-yellow or slightly tawny, flesh white ; 
lamellae distant, slightly decurrent, white; stem equal, solid, slightly 
floccose-squamulose at the top, elsewhere glabrous, glutinous, 
white or whitish, sometimes abruptly pointed at the base; spores 
elliptical, .0004 in. long, .0002 to .00024 broad. 
Pileus 1 to 2 in. broad; stem 2 to 3 in. long, 3 to 4 lines thick.

The species belongs to the tribe Limacium, and is related to 
- H. discoideus Fr., from which it may be separated by its solid stem 
and larger spotes. : : ; 
ENTOLOMA FERRUGINANS.  Pileus fleshy, convex, obtuse or um- 
bonate, often irregular, hygrophanous, glabrous, shining, dark 
fuliginous or broccoli-brown, flesh whitish, fibrous and colored at
