326 FUNGUS-FLORA. 



lose and without striae when dry ; gills decurrent, very 

 distant, rather broad, branched and with intermediate 

 shorter ones, grey; stem about 1 in. long, about line 

 thick, equal, slightly expanding into the pileus, polished, 

 glabrous, stuffed, coloured like the pileus ; spores elliptical, 

 smooth, 7 x 5 p. 



CantJiarellus cupulatus, Fries, Epicr., p. 367 ; Cke., Hdbk., 

 p. 342 ; Cke., Illustr., pi. 11 10s. 



On the ground. 



Easily recognised by its diminutive size, rtifescent pileus 

 and stem, and grey gills. Resembling a Xerotus in habit. 



See note under C. Stevensoni. 



Cantharellus Stevensoni. B. & Br. 



Pileus up to 4 lines across, orbicular, umbilicate, pallid, 

 smooth, margin inflexed, flesh thin ; gills decurrent, pallid, 

 brownish behind ; stem up to ^ in. high, not | line thick, 

 cylindrical, delicately pulverulent, white, then darker.

 1422; Cke., Illustr., pi. llllB; Cke., Hdbk., p. 342. 



On rotten wood among moss. 



Pileus about 2 lines across, stem ^ in. high, ^ line thick, 

 with a little white mycelium at the base. Very near to 

 C. cupulatus t but that is very strongly umbonate when young, 

 and the umbo is always visible at the bottom of the umbilicus ; 

 the habitat moreover is different. (B. & Br.) 



Cooke's figures are larger than the measurements given 

 above ; pileus up to ^ in. across, with a decided nipple-like 

 umbo ; stem up to 1 in. long. 



Cantharellus replexus. Fr. 



Pileus |-1 in. across, membranaceous, campanulate then 

 expanded and reflexed, striate, brownish then grey ; gills 

 very slightly decurrent, distant, connected by veins to form 

 a reticulation, distant, with shorter branched ones between, 

 white then glaucous; stem l|-2 in. long, 1 line thick, 

 glabrous, slightly thickened upwards, hollow.
