REPoRT OF THE BOTANIST. AG 
Agaricus (TRICHOLOMA) IMPOLITOIDES 7. sp. 
Pileus convex, then expanded, obtuse, dry, fibrillose-tomentose, becoming 
squamose on the disk, sometimes distantly striate on the margin, whitish, the 
disk usually brownish; lamelle close, emarginate, whitish; stem equal, 
solid, slightly fibrillose, white ; spores elliptical, .00025' long, .0002’ broad ; 
flesh white, taste farinaceous. 
Plant 3’—4' high, pileus 2’-5' broad, stem 3/’—5” thick. 
Ground in woods. Gansevoort. Aug. 
This plant is closely related to A. impolitus, but I do not find the stem 
squamose nor the taste salty or peppery as in that species. It sometimes 
grows in circles. The scaly disk at first sight is suggestive of species of 
Lepiota. 
Aqgaricus (TRICHOLOMA) ALBOIDES 7. sp. 
Pileus compact, firm, convex, glabrous, white, the disk tinged with yellow 
or brown; lamelle crowded, rounded behind, subfree, white; stem nearly 
equal, solid, firm, squamulose at the apex, white; spores subelliptical, .0002/— 
.00025' long, .00016' broad; taste at first bitter, then very acrid, odor 
strong, earthy or subfetid. 
Plant 3-4’ high, pileus 2-3’ broad, stem 5/-6' thick. 
Ground in woods. Brewerton. Sept. 
This species is very near to A. alus, but its compact pileus, peppery 
taste and strong odor seem to require its separation. The stem sometimes 
penetrates the earth quite deeply. 
AGARICUS (CLITOCYBE) SUBHIRTUS 2. sp. 
Pileus convex or expanded, sometimes slightly depressed, at first tomen- 
tose-hairy and pale-yellow or buff colored, then nearly glabrous and whitish, 
the margin incurved ; lamelle close, adnate or decurrent, whitish or pale 
yellow; stem subequal, stuffed or hollow, whitish; spores subglobose, or 
broadly elliptical, .00025’ long. 
Plant 1’—3’ high, pileus 1-3’ broad, stem 2!’—4" thick. 
Ground in woods. Brewerton. Sept. 
The species is apparently related to A. swbalutaceus. The pileus becomes 
smoother and paler with age. The spores sometimes present an irregular 
form. 
AGaRIcUS (CLITOCYBE) PATULOIDES 7. sp. 
Pileus compact, convex or expanded, glabrous, the cuticle sometimes 
breaking up into small appressed scales, whitish or pale-yellow, the margin 
incurved ; lamellz thin, crowded, decurrent and reticulately connected in 
thin lines; stem equal, solid, firm, glabrous, whitish; spores subglobose or 
broadly elliptical, .00025 —.0003/ long; flesh pure white. 
Plant gregarious or circinating, 2—4! high, pileus 1-4 broad, stem 4’— 
10” thick. 
In groves and open woods. Brewerton. Sept. 
The reticulations of the narrowly decurrent lamellee at the top of the stem 
indicate a relationship with A. patulws, but it appears to be a Clitocybe, not 
a Tricholoma, and therefore must be distinct.
