Agakicus aboetivus B. (& G. 



Ground in woods and copses. Greig and Greenbusli. Septem- 

 ber and October. 



The lamellae are arcuate and long-decurrent in some specimens, 

 nearly plane and adnate-decurrent in others. They are at first 

 grayish with a flesh colored tint, at length bright fiesli colored; 

 some of them are forked. The odor is like that of fresh meal, the 

 taste not unpleasant. I have partaken of it without any injurious 

 effects, and deem it edible, though not as pleasant as some. The 

 abortive form sometimes grows intermingled with the others, 

 sometimes alone. 



Agaeicus (Clitopilus) Seymourianus n. sp. 



Pileus fleshy, thin, broadly convex, sometimes a little depressed, 

 smooth, pruinose, whitish with a dark lilac tinge ; lamellae narrow, 

 crowded, decurrent, some of them forked at tlie base, whitish with 

 a dull flesh colored tint ; stem equal, silky-fibrillose, hollow ; spores 

 globose, minute, ^oVo' loi^g- 



Plant gregarious, 2'-3' high, pileus l'-2.5' broad, stem 3"-4:" thick. 

 Ground in woods. Greig. September. The pileus is sometimes 

 lobed and excentric. 



I take pleasure in naming this species for Hon. Horatio Seymour, 

 in view of the interest he has manifested in the study of fungi.
