46 FUNGUS-FLOKA. 



evidently a Telamonia. Pileus distinctly hygroplianous, not 

 splitting. (Fries.) 



Pileus 2-4 in. broad, when dry ocliry-yellow, snbsquar- 

 rose. Gills sometimes adnate, sometimes emarginate, veil 

 rarely forming a perfect ring. Stem 2-4 in. higb, ^ in. thick, 

 firm, fibrillose, dull yellow sometimes saflron-red. (Fries.) 



Cortinarius (Tela.) hinnuleus. Fr. 



Pileus 1-2A in. across, flesh very thin except at the suh- 

 Timbonate disc, conico-campanulate then expanded, glabrous, 

 pallid tawny-cinnamon, tawny when drj'; gills slightly 

 «mavginate, distant, 3-4 lines broad, tawny-cinnamon, edges 

 quite entire ; stem 3-4 in. long, 3-4 lines thick, rigid, 

 attenuate below or subequal, tawny, the whitish silky veil 

 forming a ring-like zone, stuffed ; spores elliptical, granular, 

 10-12 X 7-8 IX.

In woods, &c. 



Very variable in size, stem sometimes short and equal, 

 sometimes slender, elongated, and flexuous, at times brownish, 

 up to 4 lines thick. Pileus varies to pallid and at length 

 depressed, rarely silky near the margin. Gills plane, 

 slightly connected by veins. Eecedes from all the species in 

 the subgenus in having a white veil. (Fries.) 



Cortinarius (Tela.) gentilis. Fr. (fig. 9, p. 16.) 

 Pileus |-1 in. across, flesh thin, conico-expanded then 

 flattened, acutely umbonate, tawny-cinnamon, yellow when 

 dry, cracked and incised, sometimes somewhat silky ; gills 

 adnate, thick, very distant, plane, connected by veins, 

 coloured like the pileus at fi.rst, not changing colour when 

 dry like the pileus and stem, hence every part of the fungus 

 is coloured alike when moist, but differently coloured when 

 dry ; stem 3-4 in. long, 1-2 lines thick, equal or attenuated 

 at the base, often curved, usually straighter than that of 

 •other species of similar size, fibrillose, tawny-cinnamon, 

 yellow when dry ; veil forming an oblique ring, sometimes 

 arranged in several zones, sometimes yellow below the 

 iioccoso-squamulose ring ; spores granular, 7-8 x 6 /*.
