NEW BRITISH BASIDIOMYCETES. 
By Worrmineton G. Surrn, F.L.S. 
Agaricus (Amanita) sunquitievs Quél. in Bull. Soc. Bot. de Fr. 
vol. xxiii., 1876, p. 824, pl. 8, fig. 10. This differs from 4. (Amani- 
topsis) adnatus W, ie in the striate genie of the pileus, in the 
presence of an annulus, and in the much smaller spores. Dr. 
Plowright states that he has seen the wa’ plants growing together, 
and that he takes 4.adnatus to be an exannulate form of A Junquilleus, 
an opinion with which I do not agree. There isa drawing of A. 
junquilleus by Mr. George a in the National Herbarium, named 
** Agaricus _sub-adnatus sp. n Diam. of pileus 43, height 54 x 
diameter of stem at middle a 
Agaricus (Lepiota) nigro-mareinatus Mass. Pileus campanu-

gro Stem hollow, attenuate upwards, smooth, salmon white 
annulus distant, persistent, membranous, white. Gills broader i an

Amongst grass, Scarborough, May, 1885. 
Allied to A. clypeolarius Bull., and especially to A. felinus Pass., 
but differing from both in the dark- edged gills. This description 
is drawn up from the RAS eer drawing and notes in the British 
Museum. Mr. Massee’s imperfect description in Eur. ung 
p. 10, is ae for ‘desi tsliontioss, the dark-edged gills not even 
being mentioned. 
ey, (Lepiota) atrocroceus W. G. Sm.  Pileus expanded, 
slightly depressed; bright salmon-orange; more or less covered 
with purple-brown, almost black, granular flocci. Stem hollow,

lose. Annult fugacious. Gills broadly adnate; salmon white.
