 plant has a slight odor of meal. 

 Agaricus sinuatus, Fr. 



Woods. East Berne. August. 

 Agaricus fastibilis, Fr. 



Thin woods. Albany. October. The plant here noticed is a 

 white variety, approaching var. alia, but with a short stem. 

 The spores are almost ochraceous. The drops of moisture on the 

 lamellae at length dry up and leave brownish stains or granules 

 resembling those on the stem and tubes of Boletus granulatus. 

 Agaricus alnicola, Fr. 



In low swampy woods about the base of alders. Sandlake. 

 October. 

 Agaricus (Galera) sulcatipes, n. sp* » 



Pileus thin, ovate, then conical or subcampanulate, hygroph- 

 anous, chestnut-colored and generally striatulate on the margin 

 when moist, becoming paler when dry ; lamellae ascending, sub- 

 distant, adnate, whitish, becoming ferruginous-cinnamon , stem 

 slender, straight or flexuous, equal, hollow, rather tenacious, 

 striate-sulcate, silky, noccose-pruinose toward the base, white, 

 often tinged with blue or green at the base ; spores elliptical, fer- 

 ruginous-cinnamon, -00025' — 0003' long, • 00016' broad. 



Plant gregarious, 1*5" — 3' high, pileus 5" — 8" broad, stem 1" 

 thick . 



Woods. East Berne. August. 



The plants were found growing on a bed of buckwheat bran. 

 The stem is white and almost shining ; striate and silky above, 

 and pulverulent or floccose-pruinose at the base, where it generally 

 assumes a greenish-blue color if handled when moist. When dry 

 the stem is distinctly furrowed. The pileus fades in drying to 

 subochraceous or subalutaceous. The lamellae are sometimes 

 white on the edge. 

 Agaricus (Orepidotus) h^srens, n. sp. 



Pileus convex, sessile, cuneiform or dimidiate, glabrous, hy- 

 grophanous, viscid and striatulate on the margin when moist, 

 white or whitish when dry ; lamellae moderately close, narrow, 

 tapering toward each end, subcinereous, then brownish ; spores 

 elliptical, pale-ferruginous, -0003' long, • 0002' broad.
