On wood, stumps, &c. Frequent. July-Oct. Pluteus.

 in my specimens, il/.y. 5. Spores 5 mk. W.P. Name — xp^cros, gold ; (^aios,

417. A. phlebophorus Dittm. — Pileus ujnber, slightly fleshy, 

 convex then expanded, wrmkled with veins, naked as well as the 

 margin which is without strise. Stem fistulose, smooth, some- 

 what incurved, shining. Gills free, white-flesh-colour. 



Appearing in the same localities as A. nanus, and very like it in all its parts. 

 It does not differ except in ihejistulose shining stem, and in the pileus being 

 naked (not pruinose), commonly reticulated with wrinkles. 



On rotten wood, sawdust, &:c. Rare. July-Oct. 



Pileus about 2.5 cent, (i in.) broad. The pits of the pileus are very deep, 

 and the reticulations very distinct ; in our plant the stem is slightly flocculose.

Siibge7iiis XIII. ENTOLOMA (iurSs, within ; Xw/xa, a fringe. Entoioma. 

 Probably referring to the innate character of the pseudo-veil). 

 Fr. Epicr. p. 143. Rosy-spored, No 

 distinct veil. Stem fleshy or fibrous, 

 soft, sometimes waxy. Pileus some- 

 what fleshy, margin incurved. Hy- 

 menophore continuous with the stem ; 

 gills sinuato-adnexed behind or separ- 

 ating. Spores, so far as they have 

 been examined, angular. Fr. Hym. 

 Eur. p. 189. 



Efitoloma is analogous with Z>7- 

 cJwloma and must be carefully separ- 

 ated from Hebeloma. The species 

 grow on the ground, and occur chiefly 

 after heavy rain. They are not used 

 as food, though many smell of new 

 meal, as esculent species often do. 



XIV. Agaricjis {Entoioma) siitU' 

 atits. One-sixth natural size. 



I. Genuini (typical species). Pileus fleshy, when full grown smooth, often 

 viscid, but not hygrophanous, nor ever innato-floccose or squamulose.
