either solid, stuffed or hollow. Even in the same collection we have 

 found some of the stems solid and some decidedly hollow. All our 

 collections of these had the agreeable odor ascribed to C. o d o r a . 

 We have therefore followed the English mycologists in not trying 

 to make a distinction between C. v i r e n s Scop, or its equivalent 

 C. V i r i d i s Fr. and C. o d o r a . We consider all of our plants 

 as a mere form of C. o d o r a differing from the European species 

 only in having the lamellae close. 



Var. a n i s a r i a Pk. differs from our ordinary form in 

 having the pileus adorned with innate fibrils and the margin more 

 or less striate. It is Agaric us (Clitocybe) anisarius 

 Pk. 



Clitocybe trogii Fr. 



TROG CLITOCYBE 

 N. Y. State Mus. Rep't 26, p. 53, as Agaricus (Clitocybe) connexus Pk. 

 Pileus fleshy, thin on the margin, convex becoming nearly plane, 

 obtuse, glabrous or minutely silky, white or grayish white, opaque, 

 odor fragrant, spicy ; lamellae close, adnate or slightly decurrent, 

 white or whitish, 2 or 3 mm broad ; stem equal or nearly so, firm, 

 solid, whitish, downy or villose at the base ; spores ellipsoid, 6-8 x 



4-5 /^. 



Pileus 5-7 cm broad ; stem 2.5-7 cm long, 3-5 mm thick. 



Woods. Lewis co. September. Rare. 



In the American specimens the margin of the pileus is some- 

 times tinged with bluish green when young and fresh. The species 

 is closely allied to Clitocybe odora (Bull.) Sow. from which 

 it differs in the grayish and more compact pileus and the constantly 

 solid stem. 



Clitocybe aperta Pk. 



OPEN CLITOCYBE

 narrow, adnate or slightly decurrent, whitish, often with a faint 

 pinkish tinge ; stem short, equal or attenuated downward, solid,
