100 ‘DECADES OF FUNGI. 
the tint of the pileus is of a more uniform ochraceous tinge, as is also 
the flesh of the pileus, as far as the origin of the gills, and beyond the 
point to which the cavity of the stem extends; the gills have a pale 
pinkish tinge here and there, and the stem itself is nearly equal, except 
at the base, where it is smooth, and not cottony. These differences 
indicate a distinct variety, but are not sufficient to justify the proposi- 
tion of a new species.

Has. In pine-woods. Sikkim, 11,000 feet. 1849. 
364. 4. (Collybia) dlandulus, n. s. ; pileo hemisphzerico carnosulo 
sieco, margine striato stipiteque solido flexuoso pruinato-tomentosis ; 
lamellis distantibus latis postice rotundato-adnexis. Hook. fil., Ser. 2, 
No. 8. 
Has. In pine-woods. Sikkim, 11,000 feet. 1849. 
Pileus about 4 an inch broad, hemispherical, obtuse, dry, white with 
a pinkish tinge, pulverulent, slightly fleshy, rather firm, Stem 13 inch 
high, flexuous, sometimes remarkably so, not a line thick, of the same 
colour as the pileus, and, like that, pruinate-tomentose, solid. Gills 
distant, rather broad, rounded behind, adnexed, scarcely truly adnate, 
white. Inodorous. 
Evidently allied to 4. alumnus, and certainly undescribed. 
365. A. (Collybia) dryophilus, Bull. ‘Hook. fib, Ser. 2, No. 34- 
Var. cespitis. 
Has. Amongst grass, moss, etc. Lachen, 14-16,000 feet. July 
18, 1849. 
The specimens have exactly the habit of 4. xanthopus or A. succi- 
neus, but with the narrow gills and characters of 4. dryophilus. There 
is not the slightest trace of any umbo, but the pileus is plane, or 
slightly depressed. 
366. A. (Collybia) macer, n. s.; pileo primitus subeampanulato ob- 
tusissimo demum expanso late conico-ambonato rufescente viscidulo; 
stipite macro flexuoso procero glabro; lamellis pallidis subadnatis pos- 
tice rotundatis, interstitiis rugosis. Hook fil., Ser. 2, No. 5. 
Has. In pine-woods, on the ground. Sikkim, 11,000 feet. 1849. 
Pileus at first shortly subcampanulate, obtuse, at length expanded 
with a broad, obtusely conical umbo, about 1 inch across, subcarnose, 
slightly viscid, light rufous, rather carnose; margin thin; substance pale 
rufous. Stem 44-5 inches high, 3-11 line thick, rufous like the pileus,
