Inodorous. Pileus 24 inches across, moist, but not viscid, convex, 
margin thin, acute, reddish-grey, rufous in the centre, sprinkled with 
little bran-like, flocculent scales. Stem oblique, solid, nearly equal, 14

Tubes short, subadnate, yellowish, slightly tinged with red. Substance 
of stem and pileus pale, unchangeable, reddish beneath the cuticle.

This species is allied to B. subtomentosus and B. chrysenteron, butat — 
once distinguished by its scaly pileus and veil. Like most of the 
Indian olei, it is a very fine species. — : T :
