This species, which is rare with us, is distinguished from all our 

 remaining white species by its viscid pileus.

(Hym. Europ. p. 52. Syl. Fung., Vol. V, p. 94. Agaricus rubicundus. Beport 26, p. 51.) 



Pileus fleshy, convex, becoming plane or centrally depressed, 

 obtuse, viscid, even or dotted with granular squamules on the disk, 

 red or incarnate, the margin usually paler, involute and minutely 

 downy in the young plant, flesh white, sometimes tinged with red, 

 taste mild; lamellae subdistant, rounded behind or subdecurrent,

Pileus 3 to 5 in. broad; stem 1 to 2 in. long, 6 to 8 lines thick. 



Mixed woods. Albany, Cattaraugus and Steuben counties. Sep-
