REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST IQI4 IOI 
Cortinarius alutaceofulvus Britz. On wet, mossy ground in mixed 
woods. This is a segregate of C. bivelus Fr. from which it 
differs by its spheroid spores which measure 6—6% by 5—6 microns. 
Cortinarius anomalus Fr. On the ground in hemlock woods. 
Cortinarius annulatus Pk. In mixed woods of spruce and birch. 
Cortinarius armeniacus Fr. Among moss under spruce etc. 
Cortinarius armillatus Fr. In hemlock and beech woods. 
Cortinarius catskillensis Pk. Under hemlock and beech. 
Cortinarius chrysolitus sp. nov. 
Pileus 1.5—4 cm broad, convex then plane, light brownish olive to 
buffy citrine (Ridg.), unicolorous, densely innately fibrillose-hairy, 
even, opaque, margin at first incurved then decurved. Flesh con- 
color, thin on margin. Gills at first chrysolite green (Ridg.), then 
yellowish cinnamon, adnate, emarginate, rather broad, close, thickish, 
entire on edge. Stem 7—10 cm long, 3—5 mm thick, slender, equal, 
stuffed then hollow, brownish olive, concolor within, fibrillose, 
mycelioid at base and attached to sphagnum. Cortina olivaceous. 
Spores oval-elliptical, 8-9 by 5-6 microns; roughish. Odor slight, 
not of radish. Taste mild. 
On deep sphagnum in swamp of balsam trees. The species be- 
longs to the subgenus Dermocybe. It is related to C. rapha- 
noides Fr. but differs in habitat, more slender habit, and lacks 
the odor and taste of that species. The colors become rather darker 
as the plant loses moisture. 
Cortinarius cinnamomeus Fr. In swamps of cedar, balsam etc. 
on mosses. A number of its varieties also occurred. 
Cortinarius claricolor Fr. Among fallen needles of spruce and 
pine. The color of the pileus is raw-sienna to orange-buff (Ridg.). 
The stem is while silky-fibrillose at first but not at all ringed as in 
emt raidgimp hans. Fr 
Cortinarius cylindripes Kauff. In balsam swamp. 
Cortinarius deceptivus Kauff. Among debris in conifer woods. 
The violet to lavender color of the young plant is much deeper than 
in C. anomalus and fades rapidly. 
Cortinarius decipiens Fr. Among mosses and sphagnum in bal- 
sam and tamarack swamp. A slender plant whose pileus possesses 
a prominent blackish umbo. The gills soon become Mars-yellow 
(Ridg.). A variety minor occurs. 
Cortinarius erugatus Fr. Under conifers.
