CORTINARIUS. 69 



mens as C. maltcorius is, but difteriiig in an opposite direction. 

 Differs more especially as follows. (1) stem hollow, elon- 

 gated (3-0 in.) slender 2 (lines), flexuous. (2) Pileus conico- 

 campanulate, per::>istently acute, for the most part almost 

 glabrous, never squamulose, all one colour, tawny-cinnamon, 

 flesh scarcely h line thick. (3) Gills remarkably ascending, 

 linear, crowded, cinnamon. (Fries.) 



Cortinarius (Dermo.) uliginosus. Berk. 



Pileus 1^-1 in. across, campanulato-couical then expanded, 

 strongly umbonate, silky, sometimes streaked, bright red- 

 brown; flesh thin, except at the umbonate disc, yellowish- 

 olive then cinnamon ; gills adnate, witli a decurrent tooth, 

 2-3 lines broad, j^ellow then olive, finally cinnamon ; stem 

 2-4 in. long, about 2 lines thick, flexuous, paler than the

 7 X 4-5 fji.

In boggy woods amongst Spliagniun. 



Eeadily distinguished by the long, slender stem, and the 

 bright red-brown, strongly umbonate pileus. 



Intermediate between C. croceus, of which it is probably a 

 paludine variety, and C. croceo-conus ; diSering from both 

 in colour. (Fries.) 



Cortinarius (Dermo.) orellanus. Fr. 



Pileus 1^2 in. across, flesh thickish at the disc, very thin 

 at the margin, convex and obtusely umbonate, villo.sely scaly 

 or fibrillose, golden-tawny, flesh reddish ; gills adnexed, 3 

 lines broad, rather distant, tawny-cinnamon, at length 

 opaque; eteai 1^-2 in. long, 3 lines thick, almost equal, 

 solid, firm, striately fibrillose, tawny; spores obliquely

On the ground in woods. 



Closely allied to Cort. cinnamomeus, and ranging through 

 the same shades of colour. It also occurs rarely with the 

 pileus golden-tawny and the gills yellow then tawny.
