times the pileus is pale-yellow and the stem and annulus white. The 

 warts are soft and flocculent, are sometimes numerous and persistent, 

 and again are few or wanting. The form with yellow stem and annulus 

 and yellow or orange pileus may be considered the typical form of the' 

 species, but forms having the stem and annulus pale or white may be 

 designated as variety pallidipes. Peck. 



For illustration of the species, A. Frostiana, from which this variety 

 differs as above described, see plate VI, fig. 5. 



Undoubtedly POISONOUS. Mcllvaine. 



Amanita glabriceps Pk. Rep., 1908: 18. Pileus thin, ovate or 

 oval becoming broadly convex or centrally depressed, glabrous, rarely 

 adorned when young with a few patches of the ruptured volva, viscid 



when moist, often finely striate on the 

 margin, white or yellowish white, some- 

 times slightly brownish in the center. 

 Flesh white under the separable cuticle. 

 Lamellae thin, crowded, free, unequal, 

 white. Stem long, slender, stuffed, glab- 

 rous or floccose-squamulose, bulbous, white, 

 the thin, flabby annulus sometimes rup- 

 tured and partly adhering to the margin 

 of the pileus ; sometimes disappearing with 

 age. Bulb margined by the remains of the 

 definitely circumcissile volva. Spores glo- 

 bose, 8/u. in diameter. 



Pileus 5-iocm. broad; stem 7-1 5cm. 

 long, 6 1 2mm. thick. Among fallen leaves 

 in woods. Stuben and Rensselaer counties, 

 New York. 



This species is closely related to Aman- 

 ita pJialloides Fr. from which it is separat- 

 ed by its more slender habit, its longer 

 slender stem with a webby pith and a 

 more narrow bulb margined by the remains of the more definitely cir- 

 cumcissile volva. Amanita phalloides striatula Pk. is a small variety of 

 this species rather than of A. phalloides. Peck. 

 Undoubtedly POISONOUS.
