Lepiota chlorospora C'opeland. Pileus fleshy, passing from globose 

 through canipanulate to broadly conical, 8 cm. wide, 4 cm. high, the 

 pcrii)]iery sometimes explanatc, disk with a brown, entire or fissured cap, 

 periphery sparsely clothed with pale brown scales and fibers, white near 

 the entire or subciliate margin ; gills free, remote, 5 cm. long, 8 mm. 

 deep, crowded, narrowed toward the stipe, white at first, turning a 

 greenish-blue, their edges made of hyaline vesicles 25 to 35 by 20 ^; 

 spores hyaline-green, 8 by 5 /x, smooth, short-stalked, each with a single 

 large globule containing the green pigment; stipe 8 to 10 cm. high, 6 to 8 

 nun. thick, straight or crooked, knotted, firmly attached to the pileus, 

 brown outside and inside, with white pith; annulus 1 cm. broad, conspic- 

 uous, fixed, persistent, split in its own plane, white above until discolored 

 by the spores.

Distinguished from L. csculenta (Massee) Sacc. ami .Sydow by the brown 

 scales and fixed annulus. Massee established the genus Chlorophyllum 

 for these green-spored species; but it seems to me better to keep them in 

 Lepiota and extend its characterization sufficiently to cover them. The 

 s])ores are of tlie same color as those of Aspergillus fjlaucus. 



L. manilensis C'opeland. Flavor excellent, odor almost none; ])ileu8 

 5 to 9 cm. wide, campanulate-conical, later flat, subumhonate, striate near 

 the margin, the disk densely clothed with minute brown scales, which 

 become sparse toward the margin; flesh whitish, unchanging; gills free, 

 not attached to a cidlar, crowded, deep, whitish, subacute at both ends; 

 spores variable, coinmonly 10 by t! to 7 fx. the largest 13 to 15 by 7.5 to 9
