Agaricus (Mijcemi) tencrrhnus. Berk., Outl., t. 6. f. 6 ; Cke., 

 Hdbk., p. 89; Cke.,Illiistr, pi. 2-i9i5. 



Ou fir-cones, sticks, &:c. 



Gregarious, pure white. Pileus 1-1^ lines broad, very 

 clelicate, frosted with minute granules. Stem 1 in. high, 

 scarce h line thick, adhering by a minute pubescent disc, 

 which is not the least striate. (Berk.) 



Distinguished from M. saccharifcra and its variety by the 

 free gills and minutely pilose stem. M. stylohates differs in 

 the striate disc. 



Gregarious, pure white. Pileus 1-1 J line broad, very 

 delicate, tender and easily injured, not pilose but frosted 

 minute granules. Gills distant unequal. Sporules white, 

 round. Stem 1 in. high. Scarce ^- of a line thick, flexuous 

 fistulose, adhering by a minute but distant pubescent disc 

 which is not the least striate. (Berk.) 



Mycena stylobates. Pers. 



White. Pileus 2-3 lines across, very thin ; campanulate, 

 obtuse, striate, minutely hairy ; gills free, distinct, ventri- 

 cose ; stem 1-2 in. high, slender, equal, smooth, disc orbicular, 

 plane, downy, radiately striate, rather large ; spores 4 X 2 /x.

 p. 89 ; Cke., tllustr., i)l. 249a. 



On fern stems, twigs, &c. 



Distinguished by the smooth stem and large, flat, orbicular, 

 radiately striate disc. 



Pure white. Pileus 2 lines or more broad ; stem 1-2 in. 

 high, ^ line thick, rather thicker at the base, adhering by 

 a broad membranaceous, tomentose, radiato-striate disc. 

 (Berk.) 



Pure white. Pileus 2 lines or more broad, campanulate 

 or hemispherical, sometimes broadly and obtusely umbonate, 

 striate, with a round mark (in thinner specimens), in the 

 centre caused by the insertion of the stem, minutely pilose, 

 not granulose. Gills unequal, rounded, free. Stem 1-2 in. 

 high, J a line thick, rather thicker at the base, flexuous, 

 fisiulose, downy or minutely pilose, though sometimes as the
