colored like the pileus; stem equal, tough, hollow, glabrous, colored 

 like the pileus, "with white mycelium at the base; spores broadly ellip- 

 tical, browuish-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, Fr. 



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 

 Selectfe as Agaricus trUcopus. 



Naucoria carpophila, Fr. 

 Borders of woods. Catskill mountains. September. 



Galera inculta, n. 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 ; 

 lamellae broad, subdistant, veutricose, 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 distinct species. The pileus, when dry, resembles in 



color that of Galera tener ; when moist, that of GlUocyhe laccata in its 



small glabrous striatulate form. The specimens were found growing 



with Naucoria paludom, from which they may be distinguished by the 



more campanulate pileus, the broader, more distant lamellae and the 



larger spores. 



Agaricus comptulus, Fr. 



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.
