CLASSIFICATION OF FUNGI. 75 



9. Coprinus. 



10. Gomphidius. 



11. Anellaria. 



Having arranged these lists of mushrooms 

 by their different characteristics, and then by 

 the color of the spores, we will give a list of 

 fungi familiar to most persons, classified ac- 

 cording to the colors of the cap. The far greater 

 number have been analyzed by the writers, and 

 a full description is given to enable the begin- 

 ner more easily to identify them. 



The reader will notice that in the lists of 

 fungi given above there are certain genera not 

 elsewhere mentioned in this book. He will 

 understand that it is inadvisable in a short 

 primer to allude to all the genera that exist. 

 It was, however, impossible to give a complete 

 table without including them in it.
