In woods. Not uncommon. Distinguished readily by the 

 filiform sporophores, which project into the cavities. 



5. H. -VTilgaris, TuL ; roundish, irregular, dirty-white, soon 

 soiled, softish, within dirty-white, then dark-hrown ; sterile 

 base minute; spores oblong or lanceolate, oblong-acute, atte-

 spores lanceolate, acute, shortly pedicellate, rather rough. — 

 Ann. of Nat. Hist, xviii. p. 74. 



In a dry fir-plantation. Cotterstock, Northamptonshire. 

 About size of horse-bean. Resembling somewhat H. luteus. 



7. H. citrinus, Vitt. ; rounded, gibbous, shining as if silky, 

 lemon-coloured or golden-yellow, then rufous-black, of the 

 same colour within ; substance firm ; spores lanceolate, apicu- 

 latc, rugulose, reddish-brown, opaque. (Plate 20, fig. 2.)

9. H. tener, B. ; small, globose, soft, white, silky; sub- 

 stance pale pink, then greyish-umber; sterile base conspi- 

 cuous, white ; spores broadly elliptic, with a papillary apex, 

 minutely warty. — Ann. of. Nat. Hist. xiii. p. 349.
