334 ANNALS OF THE MISSOURI BOTANICAL GARDEN 
On earth in mixed woods. Canada to South Carolina and 
westward to Missouri. June to September. 
The cornucopia craterellus is well characterized by its cornu- 
copia-shaped or narrowly trumpet-shaped pileus ashy to sooty 
brown in color, by thin flesh which is somewhat tough and 
flexile, cinereous drab hymenium which sometimes has a brown- 
ish tinge, and black stem. This species is too infrequent to 
afford more than a few herbarium specimens in the regions where 
I have collected fungi, but it is reported so plentiful in some 
states as to be highly regarded as an edible species.
