In damp woods, &c. 



Smell like that of radishes, stem above the bulb, which is- 

 often wanting, cylindrical, apex often hollow, hence the 

 fleshy disc of the pileiis becomes umbilicate. Yeil sometimes 

 concentrically sqnamulose, sometimes almost absent, mem- 

 branaceous ring obsolete. Edge of gills at first whitish 

 then cinnamon. (Fries.) 



Cortinarius (Tela.) evernius. Fr. 



Pileus 2-4 in. across, thin, almost membranaceous, conico- 

 camj)anulate then expanded, obsoletely umbonate, everywhere 

 covered with a white, fibrillose, silky, adpressed veil, usually 

 purple-bay when glabrous, very hygrophanous, brick-red 

 when dry, becoming dingy pale ochraceous when old, cracked 

 and torn into fibrils, very fragile ; the very thin flesh 

 similarly coloured ; gills adnate, ventricose, very broad 

 (J-1 in.), distant, purplish-violet, becoming pale, at length 

 cinnamon ; stem 3-6 in. long, h in. and more thick, equal or 

 attenuate downwards, slightly striate, violet, becoming pale, 

 ob?oletely squamulose and indistinctly annulate from the^ 

 veil; spores elliptical, granular, 10 X 7 /x.

Smell not remarkable, resembling C. elatior in size, but 

 not in any way allied, differing in the absence of the 

 glutinous veil and also in colour. (Fries.)
