Report of the Botanist. 83 



The plant has the odor of radishes. It becomes paler in 

 drying. I have seen no umbonate specimens. 



45. Agaeicus pulciiereimus n. sp. 



Pileus subcampaniilate or convex, rarely subumbonate, 

 striatiilate, dull yellow, the disk a little darker ; lamellae 

 broad, subventricose, attached to the stem, not uncinate, yel- 

 lowish ; stipe slender, hollow, concolorous, white, villous at 

 the base ; plant gregarious. 



Height 1-1.5', breadth of pileus 3"- 5". 



Under pine trees. Center. October. 



Related to A. acicula., but that has a smaller scarlet-colored 

 pileus. 



46. Agaeicus suBiiN'CAEisrATTJS n. sp. 



Pileus hemispherical, convex or expanded, striatulate, of a 

 pale yellow or flesh-colored hue, becoming whitish ; lamellae 

 subincarnate, uncinate, decurrent-toothed ; stipe slender, hol- 

 low, white-villous at the base ; plant gregarious. 



Height l'-1.5', breadth of pileus 3"-6 ". 



Under pine trees. Center and Sandlake. October. 



Near the preceding, but at once distinguished by the color 

 of the pileus and the form and color of the lamellse. The lat- 

 ter are sometimes nearly white, but tinged with flesh-color.

Pileus bell-shaped or hemispherical, sometimes convex, stri- 

 ate, viscid, grayish-yellow, the disk brownish ; lamellse white 

 or yellowish, sharply uncinate and decurrent-toothed ; stipe 

 yellow, shining, viscid, white-villous at the base.

 firm, hollow, viscid, grayish. 



Height 1', breadth of pileus 2"- 5". 



Common in pine woods. July -October. 



The pileus is described as having a small umbo or papilla. 

 I have seen no such specimens. On the other hand, it is 

 occasionally slightly umbilicate.
