DOUBTFUL AND EXCLUDED SPECIES 
Entoloma Batschianum (Fries) P. Karst. Bidr. Finl. Nat. Folk 32: 261. 1879. (Agaricus 
Batschianus Fries, Epicr. Myc. 144. 1838.) Reported from Connecticut by Sprague and 
more recently from New Jersey by Peck. This species may have been confused with EZ. 
indigoferum. 
Entoloma cinchonense Murrill, Mycologia 3: 279. 1911. This species belongs in Melano- 
leuca rather than in Entoloma. 
Entoloma clypeatum (L.) Quél. Champ. Jura Vosg. 85. 1872. (Agaricus clypeatus L. 
FI. Suec. ed. 2..446. 1775.) Reported by Peck and others from New York, Massachusetts, 
Ohio, North Carolina, and other states but the specimens seen do not correspond with authentic 
European material from Romell and Bresadola. 
Entoloma demetriacum (Berk. & Mont.) Sacc. Syll. Fung. 5: 682. 1887. (Agaricus 
demetriacus Berk. & Mont.; Mont. Syll. Crypt. 115. 1856.) Described from specimens col- 
lected on the ground among corn fodder at Columbus, Ohio. 
Entoloma flavoviride Peck, Ann. Rep. N. Y. State Mus. 41: 64. 1888. Described from. 
specimens collected in low, swampy woods at Karner, New York. ‘The type at Albany is 
poor, but it appears to be a depauperate form of Entoloma luteum; in which case the name 
would have precedence over E. luteum. 
Entoloma flavum (Johnson) Sacc. Syll. Fung. 9: 84. 1891. “(Agaricus flavus Johnson, 
Bull. Minn. Acad. Sci. 1: 329. 1878. Not A. flavus Lasch, 1829.) Described from speci- 
mens collected on the ground in woods in Minnesota. \ 
Entoloma helodes (Fries) P. Karst. Bidr. Finl. Nat. Folk 32: 260. 1879. (Agaricus elodes 
Fries, Syst. Myc. 1: 196. 1821.) Reported from Connecticut, North Carolina, and Minne- 
sota. Specimens from Romell are near E. humidicola but with conspicuous conic umbo. 
Entoloma jubatum (Fries) P. Karst. Bidr. Finl. Nat. Folk 32: 263. 1879. (Agaricus 
jubatus Fries, Syst. Myc. 1: 196. 1821.) See E. subjubatum. 
Entoloma nidorosum (Fries) Quél. Champ. Jura Vosg. 86. 1872. (Agaricus nidorosus 
Fries, Epicr. Myc. 148. 1838.) Reported by Peck and others from various parts of the 
United States, but specimens so named are quite different from authentic European material, 
being near E. strictius, with much more crowded lamellae. 
Entoloma prunuloides (Fries) Quél. Champ. Jura Vosg. 83. 1872. (Agaricus prunuloides
