Entoloma sericeum Fr. Rare, Tolland. Mixed woods. 



Flammula alnicola Fr. (sense Ricken). Rare, Tolland. 

 On end of fir log. 



Flammula highlandensis Pk. Infrequent, Leal. On de- 

 cayed coniferous wood. 



Flammula inopoda Fr. Rare, Tolland. On end of a fir log. 



Flammula lubrica Fr. Rare, Tolland. On very rotten 

 coniferous wood, under fir. 



Flammula lupina Fr. Rare, Leal. On decaying coniferous 

 log. 

  Flammula mixta Fr. (sense of Ricken). Rare, Leal.

One lot was studied during its development on rotten pine 

 timber lying in a dark shed next to our cabin. On the day 

 when these were picked, another lot was brought in from out- 

 doors, also on a very rotten pine log. Careful comparison 

 showed that the gills of the former had remained paler than in 

 the typical plant showing scarcely any yellow at maturity. The 

 gill-colors of the two lots of dried herbarium specimens do not 

 match, and a word of caution is necessary when comparing 

 dried specimens for shades of color. Both were microscopically 

 alike when mature. 



Galera hypnorum Fr. Infrequent. Leal. On moss, under 

 conifers. 



GoMPHiDius ROSEUS Fr. Infrequent; solitary. Leal, Tolland. 

 On moss, etc., under conifers. 



Differs from G. viscidus, in the smaller size, upper part of 

 stem white, ''vinaceous-pink" to "pinkish-buff" pileus, and 

 smaller spores. Both have a viscid, but not truly glutinous cap 

 and veil. The spores measure 15-18 (20) x 5-6 fi, although in 

 both collections an occasional larger one may be found. Base 

 of stem is "empire yellow." 



GoMPHiDius VISCIDUS Fr, Infrequent, solitary. Leal, Tol- 

 land. Under pines, spruce or fir. 



Although not common, nor as luxuriantly developed as in
