  Sometimes 
  the 
  pileus 
  is 
  slightly 
  umbonate 
  and 
  its 
  margin 
  appen- 
  

   diculate 
  with 
  the 
  remains 
  of 
  the 
  white 
  floccose-fibrillose 
  veil. 
  The 
  

   spots 
  are 
  due 
  to 
  the 
  presence 
  of 
  more 
  highly 
  colored 
  innate 
  fibrils. 
  

   The 
  stem 
  is 
  often 
  flexuous. 
  It 
  sometimes 
  becomes 
  a

  brownish 
  

   or 
  ferruginous

  the 
  base 
  when 
  old.

  The 
  plant 
  is 
  more 
  or 
  less 
  caespitose 
  in 
  its 
  mode 
  of 
  growth. 
  It 
  has 
  

   been 
  found 
  but 
  once. 
  It 
  is 
  so 
  closely 
  allied 
  to 
  the 
  preceding 
  species 
  

   that 
  it 
  might 
  easily 
  be 
  regarded 
  as 
  a 
  mere 
  variety 
  of 
  it. 
  The 
  differ- 
  

   ences 
  are 
  found 
  chiefly 
  in 
  the 
  uniformly 
  colored 
  pileus 
  and 
  its 
  gray- 
  

   ish-white
