  This 
  very 
  rare 
  species 
  has 
  not 
  been 
  found 
  by 
  us 
  since 
  its 
  discovery 
  

   in 
  Keene 
  Valley, 
  Essex 
  county, 
  in 
  1877. 
  It 
  is 
  closely 
  related 
  to 
  C. 
  

   cornucopioides, 
  from 
  which 
  its 
  shorter 
  more 
  funnel-shaped 
  pileus, 
  

   longer 
  paler 
  stem 
  and 
  smaller 
  spores 
  will 
  distinguish 
  it. 
  It 
  is 
  also 
  

   apparently 
  similar 
  to 
  C. 
  sinuosus 
  and 
  C. 
  crisjms, 
  and 
  both 
  it 
  and 
  

   they 
  may 
  yet 
  prove 
  to 
  be 
  different 
  forms 
  of 
  one 
  very 
  variable 
  species. 
  

   In 
  all 
  of 
  our 
  specimens 
  the 
  pileus 
  is 
  pervious 
  and 
  the 
  stem 
  hollow 
  

   to 
  the 
  base. 
  This 
  last 
  character 
  will 
  distinguish 
  the 
  species 
  from 
  

   both 
  those 
  mentioned. 
  In 
  some 
  specimens 
  the 
  pileus 
  is 
  much 
  lobed 
  

   or 
  multifid 
  on 
  the 
  margin. 
  The 
  hymenium 
  is 
  darker 
  colored 
  and 
  

   much 
  more 
  rugose 
  or 
  uneven 
  when 
  moist 
  than 
  it 
  is 
  when 
  dry. 
  In 
  

   the 
  dried 
  specimens 
  it 
  is 
  pale-cinereous, 
  often 
  with 
  a 
  tinge 
  of 
  yellow, 
  

   and 
  its 
  color 
  extends 
  to 
  the 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  stem. 
  The 
  darker 
  color 
  of 
  

   the 
  pileus 
  is 
  continued 
  downwards 
  in 
  the 
  cavity 
  of 
  the 
  stem. 
  In 
  

   general 
  appearance 
  this 
  species 
  corresponds 
  more 
  closely 
  to 
  Can- 
  

   tharellus 
  cinereus 
  than 
  does 
  C. 
  cornucopioides, 
  which 
  is 
  sometimes 
  

   compared 
  with 
  that 
  species.
