DECADES OF FUNGI. 135

389. L. princeps, n. s.; pileo infundibuliformi sicco opaco subfari- 
naceo sanguineo-rubro ; stipite obeso subconcolori deorsum attenuato 
solido ; lamellis pallidis. Hook. fil. Ser. 3, No. 16. 
Has. In woods. Kullung, Khassya, 6000 feet. July 9, 1850. 
Inodorous, milky.  Pileus 4 inches across, irregular infundibuliform, 
dry, opake, subfarinaceous, of a deep rich blood-red. Stem 33 inches 
high, more than an inch thick, straight, attenuated downwards, blunt, 
more tawny than the pileus, solid, white within, except towards the 
edges. Gills moderately broad, very pale, but partaking of the same 
tint as the stem, decurrent. 
Allied to Lactarius Volemus, but a still more handsome species, re- 
markable for its very rich colour. 
No. 12 is probably the old state of this, as the odour is putrid. The 
substance fleshy and brittle, not firm, as in No. 16; pileus moist, but 
not viscid, glistening ; surface of stem opake, almost pubescent. The 
colour of every part is much darker, Gathered at Myrung, 6000 feet, 
July, 1850. 
* L. subdulcis, Fr. Ep. p. 345. Hook. fil., Ser. 3, No. 28. 
As I have seen no specimens of this species, and the drawings are 
unaccompanied by any notes, I cannot speak positively about it, The 
pileus is of a more or less dark reddish-brown, deeply umbilicate, and 
slightly carnose. The stem of the same colour as the pileus, and nearly 
equal, yellowish within, and solid when drawn. Gills at first yellowish, 
then reddish-brown. Another species, or possibly a Russula, from dry 
clay, was gathered at Nunklow, July 11, 1850, of a much paler colour, 
not at all umbilicate, and with a hollow stem, evidently at first stuffed. 
This is No. 26 of the same collection.

The colour is duller than usual, but I have found very similar speci- 
mens in England, approaching somewhat to C. cinereus.
