164 Thirty-fifth Report on the State Museum. 



dining to tawny, the umbo generally darker ; lamellae crowded, free, 

 whitish or yellowish, some of them forked ; stem equal or slightly 

 tapering upward, smooth at the top, floccose and viscid elsewhere, 

 hollow or containing a cottony pith, annul us obsolete ; spores ellipti- 

 cal, -0002 — 00025' long, -00012' — 00016' broad. 



Plant 2— 3' high; pileus 2'— 3' broad; stem about 3' thick. 



Frondose woods. Lowville. September. 



This species is about equal in size to the preceding one, and equally 

 viscid. It is distinguished by its colored pileus usually adorned by a 

 few spot-like scales and by the floccose scales or filaments of the stem. 

 It has been found but once. 



In the preceding pages, a personal name added to the station of a 

 plant indicates the collector or contributor. "When no name is added 

 to the station the plant was collected by the writer. Dates signify the 

 time when the plant was collected, and indicate to some extent the 

 time of its occurrence. In the monograph of the Lepiotae they indi- 

 cate the time when or during which the species has been observed. A 

 single accent placed above and at the right of a figure should be read 

 "inch" or "inches," according to circumstances; a double accent 

 should be read " line " or " lines." A dash between two numbers is 

 equivalent to the word "to." 



Grateful acknowledgments are rendered to those botanists who have 

 contributed specimens or information. 



Very respectfully submitted. 



CHARLES H. PECK.
