88 AGARICINI. 



Named from the color of pileus, which is a cinnamon yellow, belongs 

 to the tribe of Dermocybe, Hautkopf of the Germans. The pileus i.s 

 thin in the flesh. Common in Minesite woods. 



C. (Dermocybe) sanguineus. Fr. 



Pileus, rather thin, convex or expanded, with decurved 

 margin, silky or minutel}^ squamulose, bright red. 



Gills, rather close and broad, emarginate, a little darker 

 red than the pileus. 



Stem, equal, stuffed or solid, nearly smooth, concolorous. 



Height about two inches, breadth of pileus six to twelve 



lines, stem one to two lines. — Peck' s Reports. 



Prof. Peck determined this species as merely a variety of the C. cinna- 

 momeus. 



Found in chaparral ridgewood, the only locality in the Lehigh Valley. 



Tribe V. Telamonia. 

 Pileus moist, hygrophanous, at the first smooth or sprinkled 

 with superficial whitish fibres of the veil. Flesh thin through- 

 out or becoming so abruptly at the margin (not equally atten- 

 uated), scissile. Stem annulate below from the universal veil 

 or peronate with scales, somewhat cortinate at the apex, hence 

 the veil is somewhat double. To this tribe are referred 

 some species, intermediate between this and the preceding one, 

 on account of their double veil, the universal one forming a 

 slight ring, and their pileus not being silky. — Stevenson's 

 British Fungi. 



C. (Telamonia) distans. Pk. 



Pileus, thin except the disk, convex, squamulose, bay- 

 brown when moist, tawny when dry. 



Gills, broad, distant, thick, dark cinnamon color. 



Stem, subequal, often a little tapering upward, solid, 

 slightly fibrillose- scaly, concolorous.
