T. caryupfiyllea may be distinguished from our other northern 

 species which have a central stem and dark hymenium, by the 

 thin lobes of the pileus which dry paler than the hymenium, 

 and l)y the fretiuent occurrence of specimens with the pileus 

 consisting of many lobes and pilei imbricately arranged in a 

 manner suggestive of a double pink or carnation, as shown by 

 JSchaefTer's fig. 5, and Persoon's fig. 10 of the illustrations cited. 

 Our specimens agree well with the figures of Schaeffer and Per- 

 soon — those of Persoon are especially good but unfortunately 

 occur in a work which is very rare. 



We find occasionally specimens which agree well with T. 

 radiata (Holmsk.) Fr., but these specimens are connected so 

 closely by intermediate forms— often in the same collection — 

 with others which are undoubtedly T. caryophyllea that I refer 

 them to the latter species.
