Agaricus.] 



FUNGI, 51 



tinged with chocolate, but generally ochraceo-rufous; pale when dry, 

 and then occasionally zoned : Jhsk woolly when dry, firm when 

 moist. Gills very numerous, linear, fi-ee or only adnexed, tinged with 

 yellow, or of the colour of the pileus, the unequal ones very long. 

 Sporules white, globose. Stem very various in height,^— U lines 

 thick, tough, pulverulento-pubescent with a long very strigose rooting 

 base, rufous, hollow, the inside woolly. — Certainly a very distinct spe- 

 cies from the last. I do not find any processes on the gills. It must 

 not be confounded with A. conjiucns. 



127. A. 2i}uhHus,"Berk. (small lorinkled Agaric); pileus 

 tough submeuibrauaceous radiato-rugose minutely pulverulent, 

 gills adnate, stem velvety strigose at the base. 



Small stumps and sticks in woods. Oct. King's Cliffe, Wothorpc, 

 Norths. — Pileus 1 line — 1 inch broad, campanulate, at length convexo- 

 planc, wrinkled in the direction of the gills, tough, submembranaccous, 

 minutely pulverulent, dull-brown or cinereous. Gills truly adnate, 

 ascending or horizontal, moderately distant, connected by veins, white 

 with a yellowish tinge. Stem 2— 2i inches high, ^—1 line thick, 

 strigose at the base, rufous, minutely velvety, fistulose, sometimes com- 



jiressed A very well marked species, but I can find no description 



of it.

On dry blackened Agarics, either immediately, or growing upon dif- 

 ferent 6[)ecies of Schrotinm ; akso amongst decayed leaves and moss, 

 with or without a Sckrotiiim. Aug. — Nov. Not uncommon. — Films 

 2—9 lines broad, subcarnose, at first convex then expanded, and sub- 

 umbonate, sometimes depressed, white, shining with a satiny lustre. 

 Gills numerous, close, acutely adnate. Stem 1 inch long, very slen- 

 der, white or subrufescent, under the lens pulverulent, falsely fistulose. 

 The stems have a tendency to become engrafted on each other. There 

 is little doubt that A. nieemostts, Sow. is a state of this species. The 

 tuber I believe to be quite distinct, and the Agaric to be |)arasitic on it. 

 A variety is figured in /•'/. JJan. t. 20^12. f. 1. with broailer gills and a 

 stem pubescent at the base.
