New Species of Fungi 
By CHaRLEs H, Peck 
Tricholoma niveipes 
Pileus at first hemispherical or very convex, becoming broadly 
convex or nearly plane, dry, innately fibrillose, almost virgate, 
dark brown or grayish-brown ; flesh white ; lamellae rather narrow, 
close, sinuate, snowy white; stem equal or nearly so, solid or 
stuffed, snowy white ; spores oblong, 7-8 » long, 3 # broad. 
Pileus 5-12 cm. broad; stem 5-7 cm. long, 6-12 mm. thick. 
Sandy soil under or near pine trees. South Yarmouth, Mass, 
October. S. Davis. The species is allied to 7: terreum and its 
variety fragrans, from both of which it is separable by its more 
fibrillose pileus, its closer pure white lamellae and very white stem 
and by its more narrow spores. 
Hygrophorus pallidus 
Pileus thin, convex, becoming nearly plane with the margin 
Somewhat decurved and sometimes wavy, glabrous, hygrophanous, 
Pale lilac or mauve and sometimes striatulate on the margin when 
Moist, grayish-white when dry; lamellae rather thick, distant, 
arcuate, adnate or slightly decurrent, colored nearly like the pileus 
when moist, subcinereous when dry ; stem slender, equal or nar- 
rowed downwards, glabrous, hollow, white; spores white, sub- 
globose, 5—6 # long, 4-5 » broad. : 
Pileus 1.5—3 cm. broad; stem 2.5—5 cm. long, 2-4 mm. thick. 
Damp, mossy or swampy ground. Mass. September. S. 
Davis. This is apparently related to such species as 7. sphaero- 
Sporus and H. Pechii. 
Hygrophorus pusillus 
Pileus convex, thin, slightly viscid, glabrous, white ; lamellae 
arcuate, subdistant, decurrent, white; stem short, glabrous, hol- 
Ow, white, with a white mycelioid tomentum at the base ; spores 
4-6 long. ; 
Pileus 1-2 cm. broad ; stem 22.5 cm. long, 1-2 mm. thick. 
Growing on the ground in dense woods. Moscow Mountains, 
Idaho, November. - L. F. Henderson.. The species is apparently 
Telated to W. niveus, but its pileus is not at all umbilicate, and the
