Type: in Herb. Schweinitz. 
Fruetifieations single or cespitose, fleshy, firm, egg-yellow; 
pileus convex, becoming depressed or infundibuliform, glabrous, 
yellow, the margin often lobed or irregular; stem solid, cylindrie 
or tapering downward, glabrous, yellow; hymenium nearly 
even or rugose wrinkled, yellow, or with a reddish salmon tinge 
and drying ochre-red; spores 7-10 x 33-5} и. 
Fructifications 4-9 em. high; pileus 23-8 cm. broad; stem 
21-5 em. long, 5-10 mm. thick. 
On the ground in open woods. Massachusetts to Alabama 
and westward to Ohio; also in Mexico. June to September. 
Abundant locally. 
This species is so similar to Cantharellus cibarius in habit, 
coloration, size and form—differing from the latter only in the 
more even hymenium, that figures of C. cibarius will serve very 
well for Craterellus Cantharellus, if allowance is made for the 
different hymenium. Тһе firm and solid stem of С. Cantharellus 
distinguishes this species from C. odoratus easily. The latter 
species sometimes has its pileus greatly branched. My illus- 
tration of this species is photographed from the dried herbarium 
specimen of the cotype of C. lateritius Berk. In this specimen 
the lobes of the pileus were pressed together above before drying. 
The hymenium of this specimen is now ochre-red and agrees 
in color with that of the authentic specimen of C. Cantharellus 
in Curtis Herb.; both these specimens have been poisoned. I
