﻿326 Peck : New Species of Fungi 



Pileus 5-13 cm. broad; stem 12-22 cm. long. 



Fir woods. Portland, Oregon. November. Lane. 



The dried specimens have the general appearance of some 



tph 



character of the veil 



and the entire absence of an annulus indicate that the species is a 

 Hypholoma. 



Gomphidius Oregoxensis. 



Pileus at first convex, becoming nearly plane or somewhat cen- 

 trally depressed, viscid, brown or dark-brown, becoming black in 

 drying, taste sweet and pleasant ; lamellae numerous, rather close, 

 adnate or slightly decurrent, blackish in the dried plant; stem 

 short, solid, equal or slightly tapering upward, colored like the 

 pileus ; spores oblong, 10-12. 5 ;,. long, 4-5 // broad. 



Pileus 5-10 cm. broad ; stem 2.5-5 cm. long, 4-10 mm. thick: 

 Fir woods, Oregon. September to December. Lane. 

 Dr. Lane writes that this species is edible and grows so abun- 

 dantly in fir woods that it might be gathered by wagon loads and 

 might be made a source of an abundant food supply. 



SOLEMA ANOMALOIDES. 



Densely cespitose, tufts 2-6 mm. broad ; cups stipitate, cyathi- 

 form, one-fourth to one-half a line broad, externally clothed with 

 an appressed villosity, grayish-ochraceous or subcervine, whitish 

 within, the margin incurved ; spores oblong or cylindrical, 10- 

 12. 5 fi long, 3-4^ broad. 



Dead bark of plum trees. Michigan. February. Beal. 



This species is closely related to 5. anomala, but the cups are 

 more expanded, the villosity appressed and the spores longer. 

 Neither do the cups appear to spring from a visible floccose my- 



celium. 



Clavaria xebulosa. 



Clubs simple, closely gregarious, 2.5-12 cm. high, fragile, 

 hollow, narrowed toward each end, isabelline or clay color, some- 

 times clouded with darker hues, apt to become blackish in drying ; 

 spores oblong or narrowly elliptical, 6-7.5 l l !ong, 3.5-4^ broad ' 



Sandy soil, Sandy Point, Newfoundland. September. 



Waghorne. 



SXEGAXOSPORIUM ACERIXIU. 



Acervuli subcutaneous ; spores oozing out and forming black 

 masses on the surface of the matrix, obovate, 50-60 « l° n S'
