wavy, glabroTis, not virgate l)ut usually marked with spots, 

 viscid, bay or rufescent, becoming paler near the edge, 

 margin incurved, naked; gills deeply emarginate, almost 

 free, at first very narrow and pure white, then 3 lines broad 

 and with a rufescent tinge ; stem 2-3 in. long, and up to

In pine woods, &c. 



Often in company with T. equestre, with which it agrees 

 in size, most nearly allied to T. russida, which is distin- 

 guished by the granular, rosy pileus. (Fries.) 



Tricholoma stans. Fr. 



Pileus 3-4 in. across, flesh thick, firm, white, reddish 

 under the cuticle ; convex then expanded, even (not granu- 

 lated nor spotted), viscid, rufescent ; gills rounded behind, 

 •crowded, white, stained with reddish brown ; stem 2-3 ii- . 

 long, almost equal, solid, J-1 in. thick, whitish with a

On the ground. 



Fries distinguishes two forms of the present species : — 

 (A.) campestris ; stem stout [2 in. long, li in. thick], reddish, 

 squamulose but not villose ; pileus broad [5 in. across!, 

 more expanded, rufous brown^ indistinctly virgately squa- 

 mulose : — (B.) montana ; stem up to 4 in. long, quite equal, 

 white, apex distinctly whitish squamulose; pileus smaller 

 [3 in. across], more convex, and altogether even. (Fries.) 



Allied to T. pessundatiim by the granulated or spotted pileus, 

 and the flesh being reddish under the cuticle. 



Tricholoma russula. Schaeff. 

 Pileus about 3 in. across, flesh very thick at the disc, 

 l)ecoming thin towards the margin, white, tinged with rose 

 Tinder the cuticle; convex then depressed, obtuse or slightly 

 gibbous, granulated, viscid, rosy flesh-colour, sometimes 

 very deep ; gills slightly rounded behind then slightly
