CLASSIFICATION OF FUNGI. 51 



campestris, or campester, was always the one 

 denoted. 



STROPHARIA = a sword belt. 



This genus has a ring. The gills are gener- 

 ally attached to the stem ; some species grow 

 on the ground, and some grow on other fungi. 

 They are sometimes bell-shaped and then flat- 

 tened, often with a mound or umbo. 



HYPHOLOMA = web and fringe. 



The veil in this genus is woven in a web 

 which adheres to the margin of the cap. The 

 cap is more or less fleshy, and the margin at 

 first incurved. The gills are attached or have 

 a tooth. There is no ring. The plants grow 

 in tufts on wood, or at the base of trees in the 

 autumn. 



PSILOCYBE = naked and head. 



The cap in this genus is fleshy, smooth, and 

 the margin at first incurved. Gills turn dusky 

 purple. The stem is cartilaginous, hollow or 

 stuffed. No veil is visible. They grow on the 

 ground.
