(N. Y. State Mas. Report 41, p. 60.) 



Pileus thin, campanulate, obtuse, o-labrous, slig:htly viscid when 

 moist, greenish-yellow, flesh white; lamellae crowded, iree or sUghtly 

 adnexed, ivhite; stem equal, firm, glabrous, white ; spores broadly 

 elliptical, .0002 in. long, .00016 broad. 



Pileus 2 to 3 in. broad ; stem 1 to 2 in. long, 3 to 5 lines thick. 



Thin woods. Catskill mountains. September. 



This species resembles some forms of T. equestre,' ixom. which it 

 is separated by its white lamellae. It appears to be intermediate 

 between that species and T. sejundum, from which its glabrous 

 pileus and crowded lamellaa distinguish it.

 Separating Tricholoma 



(Hym. Europ. p 48. Syl. Fung. Vol. V, p. 88.) 



Pileus fleshy, convex then expanded, umbonate, slightly viscid, 

 streaked ivith innate brown or blackish fibrils, whitish or yellowish, 

 sometimes greenish-yellow, flesh white, fragile; lamellae broad, 

 subdistant, rounded behind or emarginate, white ; stem solid, stout, 

 often irregular, white ; spores subglobose, .00025 in. broad. 



Pileus 1 to 3 in. broad ; stem 1 to 3 in. long, 4 to 8 lines thick. 



Mixed woods. Suflblk county. September. 



The plants referred to this species are not uncommon on Long 

 Island, growing in sandy soil in woods of oak and pine. They are 

 usually more or less irregular and the pileus becomes fragile. It is 

 quite variable in color, sometimes approaching a smoky -brown hue, 

 again being nearly white. The taste of the typical form is said to 

 be bitter, but the flavor of our plant is scarcely bitter. In other 

 respects, however, it agrees well with the description of the species.
