 but pleasant though peculiar, resembling that of guni just 

 beginning to ferment. 



This peculiar form is the move interesting, as it has not 

 been met with in Sweden. (B. & Br.) 



Cortinarius (Ino.) suillus. Fr. 



Pileus 3-4 in. across, flesh thick at the disc, elsewhere

 gills adnate, up to ^ in. broad, rather distant, cinnamon, 

 opaque ; stem stout, spongy, 3-4 in. long, |-1 in. thick, 

 clavately-bulbous, attenuated upwards, dingy, pallid, darker

Suhcaespitose. Solitary specimens are larger and resemble 

 C. violaceus in habit, but differ in being entirely ochraceous ;

Differs from C. redemitus in the expanded very obtuse
