colored like the pileus; stem equal, tough, hollow, glabrous, colored 
like the pileus, with white mycelium at the base; spores broadly ellip- 
tical, brownish-ferruginous, .00025 to .0003 in. long, .0002 broad. 
Pileus 6 to 10 lines broad; stem 1 in. long, .5 to 1 line thick. 
Decayed wood and old stumps of deciduous trees. Selkirk. August. 
Naucoria triscopoda, /’r. 
Decayed wood. Catskill mountains. September. 
Our specimens belong to the form having the pileus striatulate on 
the margin when moist. This form is figured and described in Icones 
Selectie as Agaricus triscopus. 
Naucoria carpophila, fr. 
Borders of woods. Catskill mountains. September. 
Galera inculta, x. sp. 
Pileus thin, somewhat fragile, campanulate, then convex or nearly 
plane, obtuse or rarely with a small umbo, hygrophanous, cinnamon 
color and striatulate when moist, buff color and atomate when dry, 
sometimes minutely pitted or corrugated, rarely rimose-squamulose; 
lamelle broad, subdistant, ventricose, adnexed, white crenulate on 
the edge, at first pallid, then pale cinnamon; stem straight or sub- 
flexuous, hollow, brittle, slightly silky striate, reddish-brown, some- 
- times slightly pruinose-mealy at the top and white villose at the base; 
spores subelliptical, pointed at each end, brownish-ferruginous, .0006 
to .00065 in. long, .0003 broad. 
Pileus 6 to 12 lines broad; stem 1 to 1.5 in. long, .5 to 1 line thick. 
Damp ground under willows and alders. Catskill mountains. 
September. 
This is a very distintt species. The pileus, when dry, resembles in 
color that of Galera tener ; when moist, that of Clitocybe laccata in its 
small glabrous striatulate form. The specimens were found growing 
with Naucoria paludosa, from which they may be distinguished by the 
more campanulate pileus, the broader, more distant lamelle and the 
larger spores. 
Agaricus comptulus,  F’r. 
Cultivated ground. Menands. August. 
Closely allied to A. campestris, from which it may be separated by 
its smaller size, the yellowish hue of the dry plant and by the smaller 
spores. 
Stropharia albocyanea, Desm. 
Bushy pastures. Catskill mountains. September
