264 BRITISH FUNGI 



mycelium at the base, ii-2 in, long (spores nodulose, 7-8x5-6 jj., 

 cystidia spindle-shaped or subventricose). 



Superticially resembling /. geophylla, differing in having warted 

 spores. 



In woods and damp places. 



/. infida. — Entirely white. Cap conico-campanulate, then ex- 

 panded and umbonate, silky-fibrillose or more or less squamulose, 

 white, or slightly tinged grey or yellow, edge often splitting, about 

 I in. across ; gills free, crowded, greyish cinnamon ; stem solid, 

 minutely pruinose, apex scurfy, white, i|-2 in. long (spores irregu- 

 larly globose-oblong, nodulose, 9-10x6-7 jx ; cystidia fusiform or 

 subventricose). 



Superficially indistinguishable from /. geophylla, from which it 

 differs in having nodulose or warted spores. Probal)ly common in 

 England, but passed over as I. geophylla. This fungus was called 

 /. commixta by Bresadola, who presumably did not know that it 

 had been previously named I. infida. 



On the ground in woods. 



/. prcetervisa. — Cap conico-campanulate, then expanded, um- 

 bonate or gibbous, slightly viscid, fibrillose, fawn-colour, edge 

 generally darker, i^-2i in. across ; gills adnexed, narrowed behind, 

 almost free, cinnamon, edge white ; stem with a marginate bulb, 

 white, then tinged straw-colour, 2-2^ in. long (spores rough, 9-11 x 

 5-6 /x ; cystidia ventricose, 55-75 X 18-30 /x). 



ft Stem coloured. 



/. fasciata. — Tufted. Cap campanulato-convex, silky, disc 

 rufous, remainder pale tan, everywhere covered with minute, dark, 

 spreading scales, 2-3 in. across ; gills crowded, pallid ; stem fibril- 

 lose, reddish inside and outside below, pallid above, 2-3 in. long 

 (spores minutely warted, 10x6 /j. ; cystidia ventricose). 



Known from every other species of Inocyhe by the densely tufted 

 habit. 



On the ground among grass. 



/. lanuginosa. — Cap convex, then expanded, velvety, with 

 minute erect squamules at the disc, umber or brown, then yellowish, 

 up to f in. across ; gills becoming brown, edge white and fimbriate ; 

 stem slender, fibrillose or downy, brown, apex white and mealy, 

 about I in. long (spores warted, g-12 X 8 /x ; cystidia spindle-shaped). 



On the ground in woods. 



I. calospora. — Cap convex or bell-shaped, then expanded and 

 umbonate, fibrillose with darker squamules at the disc, yellowish 

 brown or tawny grey, edge paler, up to i in. across ; gills almost 

 free, tawny ochre or brownish ; stem slender, pale, then reddish 

 or like the cap, 1-2 in. long (spores globose with numerous slender 

 cylindrical warts, 10-12 [x ; cystidia subcylindrical). 



On the ground in woods and shady places.
