Supplement 



The species has the volva definitely circumcissile, and after its rupture 



the free margins sometimes closely 



(Plate CLXXXVI.) 



sheathes the base of the stem. In 

 some of the specimens the central 

 part of the pileus is areolate rimose, 

 a wart occupying the center of each 

 areola. The warts are more closely 

 placed in the center than toward the 

 margin. From pale forms of A. inns- 

 caria this species may be separated 



(Plate CLXXXVII.) 



Vsnat 



by its more crowded, angular, erect 

 warts and by the absence of scales or 

 fragments of the volva from the base 

 of the stem. Peck.
