Sub-genus 5. Telamonia. — In Telamonia the pileus is moist 

 and hygrophanous, at first smooth or sprinkled with a few whitish 

 fibrils, the remains of the veil ; stalk 

 annulate, or peronate with scales. There 

 are forty-two British species of Telamonia ; 

 of these three are represented by models. 



81. Cortinarius bulbosus Fr. — Pileus 

 brown when moist, red-brown when dry, 

 campanulato-expanded, margin torn, fibril- 

 lose ; flesh brownish when moist, whitish 

 when dry ; gills adnate, somewhat distant, 

 brown-cinnamon, never violet ; stalk solid, 

 bulbous, paler than pileus, yellowish at 

 base, with a white fugacious ring. 



A rare inhabitant of woods.

82. Cortinarius evernius Fr. — Pileus (One-fifth natural size.) 

 purple-brown, brick-red when dry, hoary-grey when old, very 

 hygrophanous, then fragile, conico-campanulate, then flattened and 

 obsoletely umbonate, when young slightly silky with white fibrils, 

 at length rimosely incised and torn into fibrils ; flesh same colour ; 

 gills adnate, ventricose, broad, distant, violaceous-purple, then 

 paler, at length cinnamon ; stalk stuffed, soft, equal, slightly striate, 

 violaceous, becoming pale, obsoletely zoned with the veil. 



Frequent in woods. 



83. Cortinarius gentilis Fr. — Pileus tawny-cinnamon, yellow 

 when dry, very hygrophanous, varying to silky, conico-expanded, 

 acutely umbonate, rimosely incised; flesh thin, same colour; gills 

 adnate, thick, distant, tawny-cinnamon; stalk stuffed, then hollow, 

 equal, fibrillose, same colour as pileus when moist, furnished with 

 one or more generally oblique zones, sometimes floccose below 

 the ring, yellow. 



C. genlilis is a small species common in woods, chiefly of pine, 

 where it grows in a gregarious manner. 



GENUS V.— GOMPHIDIUS Fr. 



In Gomphidius the gills are mucilagmous, decurrent, distant, 

 and soft, and the spores purplish-black ; the veil is viscoso-floccose. 

 The species are terrestrial and chiefly found in pine woods. There 

 are four British species of Gomphidius ; two of these are represented 

 by models. 



84. Gomphidius glutinosus Fr. — Pileus fuscous-purple, often 

 mottled with black, fleshy, convex, then plane or slightly depressed, 

 smooth, very glutinous; gills deeply decurrent, distant, branched, 

 mucilaginous, whitish, then cinereous ; stalk solid, whitish, slightly
