CortTINARIUS EVERNIUS F?.

mens do not quite agree with the description, the stem being silky” 
fibrillose, not scaly. 
Gompuipius viscipus J.

LACTARIUS TRIVIALIS /7. 
Ground in woods. Poughkeepsie. W. &. Gerard. Greig. 
September. 
Our plant does not agree rigidly with the description, the pileus 
being sometimes zonate and the stem rather slender and not always 
hollow. The lamell and flesh slowly change to a greenish or 
olivaceous color when wounded, though the milk is unchangeable. 
Future observation may show it to be a distinct species, “put at 
present I prefer to consider it an aberrant form of Z. trivialis. 
LAcTARIUS CINEREUS 2. Sp. 
Pileus fleshy, at length expanded, ae depressed, usually 
umbilicate, smooth, viscid, light gray with the disk sometimes a 
little darker ; lamellee narrow, close, white ; stem equal or slightly 
tapering upward, smooth, stuffed, colored like the pileus; spores 
ssa —s0ga’ in diameter. Flesh and milk white, unchangeable, 
taste acrid. 
Plant 2’-3’ high, pileus 1/—2’ broad, stem 3’-4" thick. Ground 
in woods. Sandlake and Greig. August and September. Allied 
to L. vietus.
