14 1 FUNGUS-ILOKA. 



TDriglit-coloured pilens. Mycena acicula differs in the yellow 

 -gills and larger spores, also in the rooting stem. 



Pilens \—4: lines broad, campanulate, generally umhonate, 

 margin striate, under a powerful lens most minutely j'ilose, 

 bright orange, the umbo darkest, subcarnose, within deep 

 orange. Gills few, somewhat ventricose, adnexed or adnate, 

 with shorter ones between them, white tinged with yellow. 

 Stem about 1 in. long, quite filiform, flexuous, nearly equal, 

 minutely pilose like the pileus, pale yellow with a line 

 "w^ithin showing it to be fistulose. When growing on sticks 

 i;here are a few minute strigae at the base. (Berk.) 



Collybia ocellata. Fr. 



Pileus about \ in. across, flesh thin; conico-convex then 

 plane ; disc depressed and darker, brown, rufous, yellowish, 

 ■with a small paler umbo ; even whitish, margin usually 

 crenulate ; gills adnate, at length sej^arating from the stem, 

 closely crowded, alternate ones shorter, white; stem 1-lh in. 

 long, very slender, equal, tough, glabrous, naked, brownish-

Among grass in pine woods, &c. 



Dry, persistent. Distinguished from C. cirrliata by the 

 •glabrous stem. 



Collybia muscigena. Schum. 



Pure white. Pileus 1-3 lines across, almost mem- 

 branaceous ; convex then plane, obtuse, even ; gills adnate,

 p. 72 ; Cke., Illustr., pi. 147c. 



Among moss near trunks, &c. 



Keadily distinguished in the present genus by its pure 

 white colour and very small size. Known from the small 

 white species of Mycena by the broadly adnate gills and 

 even pileus.
