134 AGARICINI. 



Camhar- inclining to yellowish or rufescent, fleshy, very thin, somewhat 

 infundibuliform, irregular, somewhat repand and torn, smooth, 

 somewhat zoned. Stem 2.5-4 cent. (i-i}4 in.) long, 4 mm. (2 lin.) 

 thick, solid, tough, equal or at length compressed, smooth, white 

 or rarely yellowish. Gills decurrent, thin, somewhat crowded, 

 repeatedly dichotomous, white. 



Tough but not coriaceous. It approaches near to the Clitocybiz among 

 Agarics, clearly showing the affinity of these with the Cantharelli (C. cibarius, 

 aurantiacus, umbonatus, and albidus). 



In mossy places. Coed Coch. Sept. -Oct. 



Name albus, white. Whitish. Fr. Monogr, \\. p. 207. Hym. Eur. p. 457.

8. C. Houghtoni Phill. Pileus 2.5 cent, (i in.) or more broad, 

 dirty white with a tinge of flesh-colour, thin, convex, umbilicate, 

 smooth. Stem 5 cent. (2 in.) long, 2 mm. (i lin.) thick, stuffed, 

 slender, thickened at the apex, at first delicately fibrillose, root- 

 ing at the base which is more or less cottony. Gills somewhat 

 decurrent, narrow, scarcely forked, pallid flesh-colour. 



Sometimes 5 cent. (2 in.) broad. Allied to C. albidus. 



On the ground. Hereford. 



Name after Rev. William Houghton. Phillips. B. & Br. n. 1565. 



** Pileus somewhat membranaceous, stem tubular and polished. 



9. C. tubseformis Fr. Pileus fuscous when moist, becoming 

 pale when dry, fleshy-membranaceous, infundibuliform, repand 

 and lobed, flocculose. Stem hollow, at length compressed and 

 lacunose, smooth, orange-tawny. Gills thick, distant, branched 

 with many clefts, yellow or fuliginous, naked. 



It differs widely from all the preceding species in the somewhat membrana- 

 ceous, infundibuliform, flocculose pileus, and in the tubular stem. Interme- 

 diate between C. infundibuliformis, to which it is like in the hymenium, and 

 Craterellus lutescens, which is more like it in the entire habit. 



Var. lutescens, pileus convexo-umbilicate, rather even, somewhat regular ; 

 stem more equal, attenuated upwards; gills less divided. Bull. t. 473. f. 3.
