Messrs. Berkeley and Broome on British Fungi. 179 



On naked soil, Sibbertoft, Oct. 1881 _; about an inch in 

 diameter. Allied to A. mesoplumis^ of wliicli we were at first 

 inclined to consider it a variety. Spores elliptic, uninu- 

 cleate, '0005 inch long. 



*^. (Hebeloma) /r«^M5, P. Ic. et Desc. tab. 5. figs. 3, 4._ 

 This appears to be a very variable species. The figure m 

 the ' Icones' does not accord in several respects with the cha- 

 racters in Hym. Eur. The pileus is neither campanulate nor 

 umbonate, but at length depressed. An Agaric, certainly re- 

 ferable to this species, occurred at Hothorpe, Norths., Feb. 8, 

 1882, in which, though the essential characters are the same, 

 the pileus is at first of a deep brown, but hygrophanous, 

 changing to tan-colour. The stem obviously though minutely 

 scaly ; the gills adnate with a minute decurrent tooth, at first 

 pale, then argillaceous, their margin distinctly edged Avith 

 snow-white particles. 



1943. A. (Flammula) vinosus^ Bull. t. 54. 



Abundant on the Morfa, Conway, Miss R. Berkeley. A 

 very interesting species which has scarcely been gathered 

 since the time of Bulliard. Spores pale umber, '0002 inch 

 long, shortly ovate. 



1944. A. (Flammula) astragalinus, Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 248. 

 Sent from Glamis by the Eev. J. Stevenson, in whose 



specimens the flesh was intensely red, and when bruised, as 

 described by Fries, became black. Perhaps the most beauti- 

 ful of Agarics. 



1945. A. (Flammula) ajncreiis, Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 249. 

 Coed Coch, 1881. Very acrid. 



1945 his. A. (Naucoria) luguhris, Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 253. 

 Coed Coch. A single specimen only, in a mountain-fir 

 wood. 



Spores very irregular, '0002 to -0003 inch long, subglobose. 



1946. A. (Naucoria) melinoides, Fr. non Bull., excepta 

 560. fig. 1 F, the other figures belonging to A. hypnorum. 



Kew, Dr. Cooke. Spores elliptic, "0006 inch long, with 

 one or two nuclei. 



1947. A. (Naucoria) sideroides, Bull. t. 588. 



Amongst moss, Sibbertoft, Nov. 10, 1881. Spores '0004 

 to "0005 inch long, half as much wide. This and the two 

 neighbouring species, though externally resembling each 

 other, have very different spores. 



1948. A. (Naucoria) cerodes, Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 257. 

 Amongst moss, Sibbertoft, Sept. 23, 1881. Spores '0003 



inch long. 



1949. A. (Crepidotus) epigceusj Pers. Syn. p. 377 j A. 

 depluens, Batsch, fig. 122.
