73. C. infucatus Fr. Pileus 2.5-4 cent, (i-i# in.) broad, 

 yellow, not hygrophanous, fleshy, comparatively small, convex, 

 obtuse, silky when dry, even ; flesh whitish. Stem 7.5 cent. (3 in.) 

 long, equally attenuated upwards from the clavate base (12 mm., 

 ^ in. thick), 4-6 mm. (2-3 lin.) thick at the apex, solid, even, 

 fibrillose, externally and internally pallid light-yellow. Cortina 

 manifest, yellow, then darkened with the cinnamon spores. Gills 

 adnate, crowded, thin, 2 mm. (i lin.) broad, almost linear, tawny 

 then cinnamon. 



Remarkable for its bright yellow colour. It approaches C. percomis and C. 

 callisteus ; the former is readily distinguished by its viscous pileus and yellow 

 flesh, the latter with more difficulty by its robust stature, by the pileus being 

 smooth then slightly cracked with minute squamules, but especially by its 

 firmer broad distant gills.
