  Westchester 
  county. 
  October. 
  

  

  This 
  is 
  a 
  large 
  and 
  showy 
  species. 
  The 
  stems 
  are 
  sometimes 
  

   united 
  at 
  the 
  base 
  into 
  a 
  solid 
  mass. 
  The 
  young 
  lamellae 
  are 
  prob- 
  

   ably 
  yellow, 
  but 
  I 
  have 
  seen 
  only 
  mature 
  specimens.
