nearly equal, slightly rounded behind, nearly free, or only adnexed, of 
a delicate pink. Spores subelliptic, about 4:15; of an inch long. 
This is undoubtedly allied to 4. filopes, but the silky appearance of 
the pileus forbids its being united to it. The gills too are very pecu- 
liar, being nearly equal throughout. 
372. 4. (Mycena) flavo-miniatus, n. s.; pileo e campanulato subhe- 
misphærico pulcherrime miniato subpulverulento; stipite filiformi lon- 
gissimo flexuoso luteo; lamellis ventricosis adnexis alutaceis. Hook. 
fil., Ser. 2, No. 26. 
Has. In pine-woods, on sticks. Sikkim, 11,000 feet. 1849. 
Pileus $ an inch broad, at first campanulate, then nearly hemisphe- 
rical not the least umbonate, dry, subpulverulent, flesh thin, of the 
colour of the pileus, vermilion, sometimes yellow at the apex; flesh 
thin, of the colour of the pileus. Stem filiform, yellow, flexuous, 5 
inches high, fistulose, brittle, downy at the base. Gills ventricose, at- 
tenuated at the base and adnexed, pale tan. 
This species is much larger than 4. acicula, which it strongly re- 
sembles, and of which it can scarcely be considered a gigantic form, 
though I scarcely know how to point out any distinctive characters. 
The pulverulent surface of the pileus, and the long, very flexuous stem, 
are perhaps the most important. It does not retain its beautiful tints 
when dry. 
* A. epipterygius, Scop. Hook. fil., Ser. 2, No. 9. 
Has. In pine-woods. Sikkim, 11,000 feet. 1849. 
The figure represents exactly 4. epipterygius, but the note appended 
to the solitary specimen indicates that it is dry and inodorous. The 
species is, however, extremely variable, and I have, therefore, no hesi- 
tation about the correctness of the name. 
A form also from pine-woods at the same altitude, is represented in — ve 
fig. 10 of the same collection, which is very viscid, and varies with a 
yellow and red stem, and a dark pileus, the flesh of which is reddish. 
No. 17 is apparently a small form of the same species. 
All agree exactly in the shape and sculpture of the pileus, and the 
gills differ very little. > EE
