Telamonia. Manifestly allied to C. bivelus, &c. The gills are not of the bright tawny

 whitish when dry, dingy. Stem 7.5-12.5 cent. (3-5 in.) long, 

 1-2.5 cent. (}4-i in.) thick, solid, pierced by larvae, and at length 

 spongy, when young short and bulbous, then elongated and 

 somewhat equal, when perfect sheathed to the middle and ringed 

 with the adnate veil, above which it is more equal and pale 

 violaceous, when young furnished with a villous cortina, then 

 fibrillose ; below the white spreading ring whitish, fibrillose and 

 in fullest vigour floccoso-scaly, white-villous at the base. Gills
