The size and form of Dictyophora duplicata and the surface of 
its pileus are so similar to Z. impudicus that there is danger of 
mistaking that plant for 7. zmpudicus in young stages if the veil 
of the former plant has not yet lost its connections with the 
under face of the pileus so as to hang freely below the pile 
about the stipe.
