The PikuSy at its firft appearance, is feflilej nearly 

 fphserical, fpringing from a Volva. 



The ftalk, when full grown, is white or grey, a 

 finger thick, from four to fix inches high, bul- 

 bous at the bafe, and furrounded in the middle 

 with a white membranaceous ring, which con- 

 tinues without falling off. 



The Pileiis is of a dull grey color, fpotted over 

 with white warts, of a convex or nearly hemi- 

 fpherical figure when iialf grown, but almoll 

 flat when old, and three or four inches in dia- 

 meter. 



The gills are white, and the whole fubflance 

 fiefhy and brittle. 



It is very nearly related to the A. mufcarius., anc 

 perhaps may be only a variety differing ir 

 color. Like that it varies foaietimes withou 

 warts. See Schorffer. tab. 241.
