The genus Crep-i-do'-tus. — About a dozen American species belong 

 lo this genus which is described as follows by Atkinson : "In Crcpidotus 

 the pileu? is lateral, or eccentric, and thus more or less shelving, or it is 

 resupinate, that is, lying flat or nearly so on the wood. The species are 

 usually of small size, thin, soft and fleshy. The spores are reddish brown 

 (ferruginous). The genus corresponds to Plciirotus among the white- 

 spored agarics, or to Claudoptis among the rosy-spored ones." Fig. 84 

 shows a very common species on logs and stumps in shady woods.
