  The 
  colors 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  are 
  so 
  similar 
  to 
  those 
  of 
  Inoloma 
  albo- 
  

   violacea 
  that 
  the 
  plant 
  might 
  at 
  first 
  sight 
  be 
  mistaken 
  for 
  a 
  small 
  

   form 
  of 
  that 
  species, 
  but 
  its 
  small 
  size, 
  thin 
  pileus 
  and 
  short, 
  hollow 
  

   stem 
  afford 
  distinguishing 
  characters.

  whitened 
  on 
  the

  fibrils,

  or 
  tawny-cinnamon 
  when

  ; 
  lamellae 
  thin, 
  subdistant,

   coming 
  subventricose, 
  ferruginous-brown, 
  becoming

   stem 
  long, 
  slender, 
  flexuous, 
  fibrillose 
  and 
  slightly 
  floccose-scaly, 
  with 
  

   a 
  slight 
  whitish 
  evanescent 
  annulus, 
  colored 
  like 
  the 
  pileus 
  ; 
  spores 
  

   elliptical, 
  uninucleate, 
  .0004

  The 
  umbo 
  is 
  small 
  and 
  sometimes 
  acute, 
  rarely 
  obsolete. 
  The 
  dry 
  

   pileus 
  varies 
  much 
  in 
  color, 
  it 
  being 
  tawny, 
  cinnamon, 
  subochraceous 
  

   or 
  grayish-cervine. 
  The 
  young 
  lamellse 
  also 
  vary 
  from 
  ferruginous- 
  

   brown 
  to 
  reddish-umber 
  and 
  sometimes 
  have 
  a 
  slight 
  violaceous 
  tint. 
  

   The 
  species 
  is 
  apparently 
  related 
  to 
  Telamonia 
  flexipes 
  and 
  T. 
  vigida, 
  

   but 
  the 
  first 
  is 
  described 
  as 
  having 
  the 
  stem 
  violaceous 
  at 
  the 
  apex, 
  

   and 
  the 
  second 
  as 
  having 
  the 
  pileus 
  glabrous, 
  both 
  of 
  which 
  charac- 
  

   ters 
  are 
  wanting 
  in 
  our 
  plant. 
  

  

  Variety 
  bvcvipes 
  has 
  the 
  stem 
  but 
  1 
  or 
  2 
  inches 
  long. 
  It 
  occurs 
  

   on 
  decaying 
  wood.
