NEW SPBCIR8 OF FUNGI. 13 



[nocybe eutheloides. 



Pilous thin, broadly conical or campanulate, becoming nearly plane 

 with age, distinctly umbonate, silky-fibrillose, more or less rimose, 

 varying in color from grayish-cervine to chestnut-brown, the disk 

 sometimes squamulose, the flesh white ; lamellae moderately dose, 

 rather broad, ventricose, narrowed or rounded behind, adnexed, 

 whitish, becoming ferruginous-brown, white and denticulate on the 

 edge : stem equal, subflexuous, solid, fibrillose, whitish or pallid ; 

 spores even, uninucleate, subelliptical, .00035 to .00045 in. long, 

 .00025 to .0003 in. broad. 



Plant 1 to 2 in. high, pilous (> to 12 lines broad, stem 1 to 2 linos 

 thick. 



Woods. Brewertbn. September. 



The species belongs to the section RiMOSl. It agrees in many re- 

 spects with the description of Inoct/be eut/ieles, but differs in the char- 

 acter of the lamellae, which are rather abruptly and strongly narrowed 

 behind and adnexed, not adnate. The spores are longer than in that 

 species and the plant is destitute of a farinaceous odor. The pileus 

 is sometimes scarcely rimose and it varies considerably in color. The 

 stem is decidedly paler than the pileus. 



Inoeybe infelix. 



Pilous thin, subcampanulate, then convex or expanded, umbonate. 

 fibril lose-squamulose, umber-brown or grayish-brown, flesh white ; 

 lamellae close, rather broad, ventricose, emarginate, whitish, becoming 

 ferruginous-brown ; stem equal, solid, silky-fibrillose, whitish or pallid, 

 pruinose above ; spores oblong, oven, .00045 to .0006 in. long. .0002 

 to .00025 in. broad. 



Plant 1 to 2 in. high, pileus (5 to 12 lines broad, stem 1 to 2 lines 

 thick. 



Sterile or mossy ground. .Indian lake, Adirondack mountains. 

 August. 



The species belongs to the section Laceri. The pileus is more 

 lacerated in wet weather than in dry. and generally becomes paler 

 with age. A -mall form, variety brevipes, has the pileus \ to •; 

 lines broad and but Blightly umbonate, and the stem scarcely more 

 than half an inch long. Sometimes the stem i- white above and 

 darker toward the base. The long narrow spores constitute a marked 

 feature of the species.
