‘“Pileus fleshy, convex, slightly depressed, unpolished, bright-yel- 
low ; lamelle white, adnate, turning cinereous ; stem yellow, solid, 
white at the extreme apex.” 
Pileus fleshy, convex, then plane or slightly depressed, yellow, 
becoming paler with age, flesh white, taste mild, the margin at first 
even, then tuberculate-striate ; lamelle nearly simple, subdistant and 
broader before, adnate, white, the interspaces venose ; stem short, 
equal or tapering upward, firm, glabrous, solid or merely spongy 
within, yellow ; spores globose, .00025 to .0003 in. in diameter. 
Plant gregarious, 1 to 2 in. high, pileus 1 to 2 in. broad, stem 4 to 
6 lines thick. 
Grassy places in copses and open woods. Sandlake. July. 
The species belongs to the section Rigipa. The pileus is dry and 
sometimes slightly mealy or granular. When young it is bright-

Woods. Gansevoort. August. 
Apparently related to B. rubinus, and also resembling B. pzperatus, 
but the stem is differently colored, and I have not found the pileus 
at all viscid. 
Tremella subcarnosa. 
Small, tufted, compressed, irregular, wavy or contorted, subcar- 
nose, externally gelatinous, whitish or pinkish-alutaceous, becoming 
brownish-incarnate and somewhat glaucous when dry; spores ob- 
ovate, pointed at one end, .0002 to .0003 in. long, .00016 broad. 
Tufts 2 to 4 lines high and about as broad. 
Decaying wood of deciduous trees. Carlisle. June.
