violaceous hue the resemblance is increased. Its strong unpleasant odor 

 is very persistent and remains in the dried specimens, and its disagree- 

 able flavor is not destroyed by cooking. It grows in dense clusters and 

 in lines or arcs of circles. The color of its spores and the strong dis-

 loma, with which it might otherwise be confused. Peck.

This species was associated with E. Variabile. 

 It has the general appearance of Nolanea infula 

 Fr. from which it differs in its fleshy stem and 

 broad lamellae. In the dried specimens these as-

 becomes black.
