10. M. erythropus Fr.— Pileus about 2.5 cent. (1 in.) broad, 

 hygrophanous, pale, almost whitish when dry, slightly fleshy, 

 convex then plane, obtuse, slightly wrinkled when dry. Stem 

 5-7.5 cent. (2-3 in.) and more long, 4 mm. (2 lin.) thick, fistulose, 

 firm, tough, round or at length compressed, dark red, smooth

Inodorous, juiceless, single or somewhat casspitose. The pileus varies in 

 colour with the moisture of the atmosphere. It varies with the stem decum-

 flue?is and acervatus ; in these, however, the gills are very narrow and very 

 crowded.
