On the ground. 



In Cooke's figure quoted above, called Cort. (Tela.) ineisus^ 

 Fr., var. B, the margin of the pileus is much split and often 

 upturned, and the stem white and curved. 



Gregarious, small, form variable ; stem 1 in. long (in B> 

 2-4 in.), 1-2 lines thick; pileus commonly tawny-ferru- 

 ginous, but when young also bay, olive-brown, &c., very 

 squamulose and cracked into shreds. (Pries.) 



In dry pine-woods, scattered, but also in damp meadows, 

 dried up turf-bogs, &c., gregarious, subcaespitose ; every- 

 where tawny-ferruginous, opaqiie, smell faint. Stem some- 

 what stuffed, sometimes short, about 1 in., sometimes 

 elongated, flexuous, entirely fibrous in damp places, fibrillose, 

 not polished externally. Pileus rather fleshy, form variable, 

 acutely or obtusely umbonate, convex then expanded, naked 

 when young, then (especially in dry weather) torn into 

 fibrils, but even and shining when scorched by the sun ; 

 gills adnate, rather distant, ferruginous-cinnamon. Differs 

 from Cort. gentilis, &c., in being darker ferruginous, and 

 especially in the white, zoiied veil. A form exists having the 

 pileus olive-brown. (Fries.) 



**** Stem floccosely scaly, and like the pileus hecoming dusky. 



Cortinarius (Tela.) hemitrichus. Fr.

 umbonate, fuscous, brownish-tan when dry, densely covered 

 near the margin with superficial silky fibrils; gills adnate, 

 crowded, 2 lines broad, tan-colour ' then cinnamon; stem 

 l?,-2 in. long, 2-3 lines thick, almost equal, pale fuscous, 

 floccoso-squamose from the white veil, and ringed, hollow ; 

 flesh like that ot the pileus brownish ; spores, 6-7 x 3-4 ju,.
