790 THE AGARICACEAE OF MICHIGAN 



Bay View and New Richmond. September. Infrequent. 



Known by tbe glandular particles and hairs which cover the 

 surface of cap and stem of the fresh plant. These can scarcely 

 be seen with the lens on account of the minute size. The color 

 varies somewhat as indicated above. This species was referred to 

 the section Basipedes by Peck, but might with equal propriety be 

 placed among the Adonidae. At times the strigose hairy base is not 

 well-developed and it is then easily mistaken for M. immaculata Pk., 

 but that species lacks the glandular covering. Marasmius resinosus 

 is also glandular-viscid, but is a larger plant.

PILETJS 2-5 mm. broad, very thin, convex, widely pellucid- 

 striate, white, glabrous. FLESH membranaceous. GILLS broadly 

 adnate, thick, distant, subvenose, white. STEM 2-3 cm. long, fili- 

 form, glabrous, hollow, white, attached by a villose, bulbiUose base. 

 SPORES 7-8 x 3 micr., smooth, white. 



On decaying leaves in birch and hemlock woods. Bay Mew. 

 September. Bare. 



A minute species, closely related to others of the group. 



Section IV. Caldontes. Stem juiceless, dry, base not bulbillate 

 or dilated into a disk; edge of gills provided with cystidia which 

 give it a deeper color than elsewhere. 



In the preceding sections, M. sanguinolenta and M. leajana also 

 have this character of the gills, but differ in other respects.
