 then date - brown - tawny, fleshy, convexo- plane, obtuse, even, 

 smooth, glutinous, the regular margin bent inwards; flesh com-

 Stem 5 cent. (2 in.) long, 12 mm. {% in.) thick, solid, equal, 

 ascending, smooth, firm, white, at length becoming yellow at 

 the base, inserted in an obconic, acutely and obliquely marginate 

 bulb. Gills emarginate, somewhat distant, broad, crisped, whitish-
