In woods. Pileus 2-3 in. broad, stipe 2-3 in. long. A veiy pretty 

 species. I find it sometimes quite bluish on the pileus; and sometimes 

 the stipe rather thicker than " tapering" at the base. The lamellae 

 sometimes appear a little rounded behind. 



34. A. PHYLLOPHiLus, Fr. — White. Pileus fleshy, thin, rather plane, 

 umbilicate, glabrous, growing pale. Stipe rather hollow, terete, then 

 compressed, glabrous, white tomentose at the base. Lamellae, adnate- 

 decurrent, moderatel}'^ distant, white then 3'ellowish. Spores oblong- 

 ovoid, .0055X.0028 mm. 



In woods among old leaves, especially of beech. Pileus 2-3 in. broad, 

 stipe 2-3 in. long. It sometimes occurs large and csespitose, the pileus 

 repand or even undulately lobed. 



35. A. CANDiCANS, Pers. — White. Pileus a little fleshy, convex then 

 plane or depressed, even, out of a thin silky film becoming pure white, 

 shining. Stipe disposed to be hollow, even, waxy, shining. Lamellae 

 adnate, close, thin, finally decurrent. 



In moist places in woods among the leaves. Pileus about 1 in. 

 across; stipe 1-2 in. high, incurved and villous at the base, the rest 

 glabrous. The pileus usually preserves a \evy perfect and regular 

 outline. 



36. A. DEALBATDS, Sow. — White. Pileus a little fleshy, convex, then 

 plane and revolute, even, glabrous, somewhat shining. Stipe stuflfed, 

 wholly fibrous, slender, equal, somewhat pruinose at the apex. Lamellae 

 adnate, close, thin, white. 



In pastures and grassy grounds. Pileus about 1 in. across, some- 

 times orbicular, sometimes \cvy wavy; stipe about 1 in. long, often 

 curved. It has a mild, mealy odor. 



37. A. TRUNCicoLA. Pcck. — Pileus, thin, firm, expanded or slightly 

 depressed, smooth, dr}', white. Stipe equal, stufl!"ed, smooth, often ex- 

 centric and curved, whitish. Lamellae narrow, crowded, adnate-de- 

 current. Spores oval, .0048X.0037 mm. 



In woods, growing on fallen trunks and branches, especiallj^of Maples. 

 Pileus 1-2 in. broad, stipe about 1 in. high. This species, like cyatlii- 

 formis, has a rather peculiar habitat for a Clitocybe. 



B. Pileus more or less irregular; lamelloi unequally decurrent. Fun- 

 gi ccespitose, often connate.
