 soon depressed and umbilicate, even, dry, marked with a white 

 lustre round the margin ; stem stuffed, then hollow, spongy, 

 fibrous ; gills adnate, deeurrcnt, moderately distant, white, 

 then yellowish. — VI. Dan. 1817. 



Amongst leaves, in woods. Distinguished from the last by its 

 umbilicate pileus, and the gills ehanging at length to yellow.

 nose, at first convex, then plane or depressed, even, shining, 

 with a thin dead-white film ; stem subfistulose, w^axy, shining, 

 even ; gills adnate, crowded, thin, at length decurrent.

 dead-white. About 1 inch across. In the nature of the stem 

 it approaches Omphalia. 



80. A. (Clitoeybe) dealbatus, P. ; white ; pileus rather 

 fleshy, at first convex, even, smooth, rather shining ; stem 

 stuffed, fibrous, thin, equal, pruinose above ; gills adnate,
