17. LACTARIUS GRISEUS 2. Sp. : 
Pileus fleshy, thin, expanded and broadly umbilicate or sub- 
funnel-form, most often with a small umbo or papilla, minutely 
tomentose, gray, becoming dingy-white with age; lamelle 
narrow, close, white tinged with yellow; stipe rather long, 
equal or slightly tapering upward, brittle, stuffed above, hollow 
below, villous at the base ; milk white. 
Height 2’—3’, breadth of pileus 6"— 18", stipe 2’—3” thick. 
Swamps and low woods. Sandlake and Adirondack Moun-

Pileus thin, fleshy, convex, then expanded or depressed, 
dry, minutely tomentose, cinereous, or grayish-brown, often 
with a small umbo and the margin distantly striate-marked ; 
lamellze narrow, close, yellowish ; stipe short, nearly equal, 
pallid, stuffed ; milk white. 
Height 1’-2’, breadth of pileus 6-18" stipe 1’-2". 
Under pine and balsam trees on the ground or on rotten 
wood. Adirondack and Catskill Mountains. August —Octo- 
ber. Taste acrid, unpleasant. Remarkable for, and easily 
distinguished by, its strong aromatic odor. 
Genus — RUSSULA #7. 
Hymenophorum continuous with the vesiculose trama. Gills 
rigid, not milky ; edge acute. Veil none.— Berk. Outl. 
In size and shape the species of this genus resemble those of 
the preceding one, from which they are at once distinguished by 
the absence of a milky or colored juice. Some of them resemble 
the exannulate Amanite, from which the entire absence of a veil 
will serve to separate them.
