66 Peck : Np:\v Si'ECIes of Fungi 



current, ochraccous brown ; stem firm, fibrous-striate, solid, 

 slightly tapering upward, colored like the pileus, covered at the 

 base with a dense white tomentum ; spores fcrruginous-brown, 



globose, 5 ft broad. 



Pileus 3-5 cm. broad ; stem 5 cm. long, 4-6 mm. thick. 



Gregarious on partly buried anthracite coal, Mt. Gretna, Pa. 



September. C. Mcllvaine. 



The species is peculiar In its color and habitat. In the dried 

 specimen the lamellae have assumed a brown color with no 

 ochraceous tint. Mr. Mcllvaine remarks that it is an edible 

 species, dries well and is excellent when cooked. Its relationship 

 is with F. anomala Pk., but it is a larger plant with darker color 

 and a different habitat. 



Galera capillaripes 



Pileus subcampanulate, obtuse, a little broader than high, even, 

 glabrous, hygrophanous, faintly striatulate and pale ferruginous 

 when moist, paler or buff color when dry; lamellae rather broad, 

 distant, adnate, pale ferruginous ; stem very slender, flexuous, 

 glabrous, colored like the pileus ; spores elliptic, 8-12 fi long, 6-'j 

 fx broad. 



Pileus 4-6 mm. broad; stem 2-3 cm. long, less than i mm. 

 thick. 



Lawns and grassy places, Ohio. May and June. Lloyd. 



This might easily be taken for a dwarf form of Galeni tcncra 

 (Schacff) Fr., from which its capillary flexuous stem and more 

 distant lamellae serve to distinguish it. 



Crepidotus latifolius 



Pileus very thin, submembranous, sessile, suborbicular, 3-6 

 mm. broad, hygrophanous, striatulate when moist, white and 

 slightly pubescent when dry, flesh white ; lamellae very broad, 

 suborbicular, 5 or 6 times as wide as the thickness of the flesh, 

 subdistant, extending beyond the margin of the pileus, white be- 

 coming pale ferruginous with age ; spores globose, 5-6 fx broad. 



Gregarious on much decayed wood, Ohio, Lloyd, 



Agaricus maritimus 



Pileus very fleshy, firm, at first subglobose, then broadly con- 

 vex or nearly plane, glabrous, sometimes slightly squamose with 

 appressed spot-like scales, white becoming dingy or grayish brown 

 when old, flesh whitish, quickly reddening when cut, taste agree-
