The Mycologic Flora of the Miami Valley, O. 67 
A. Fungi solitary, pileus not infundibuliform. 
’ a. Pileus not white, 30-32. 
b. Pileus white, 33-37. 
B. Fungi ceespitose, pileus more or less irregular, 38, 39. 
C. Pileus infundibuliform, 40-42. 
A. Pileus convex then plane or depressed, regular ; lamelle adnate 
or regularly adnate-decurrent. Fungi solitary. 
a. Pilewus cinereous, purplish or brown, not white. 
30. A. NEBULARIS, Batsch.—Pileus fleshy, compact, convexo-explanate, 
obtuse, even, clouded with gray or dingy-brown. Stipe stuffed, firm, 
fibrillose-striate. Lamelle somewhat decurrent, arcuate, close, white 
then pallid. Spores .0043x.0025 mm. 
In woods, not common. Pileus 3-5 in. broad, stipe 3 in. long and 
about 1 in. thick. This is a large Clitocybe, with a stout stipe and a 
thick pileus. I have not yet found it myself; it is in Lea’s Catalogue 
where it is stated as growing “amongst dead leaves in a fern ravine.” 
31. A. oCHRO-PURPUREUS, Berk.—Pileus subhemispheric, at length 
‘depressed, fleshy, compact, tough, pale alutaceous, slightly changing to 
purplish; the cuticle easily separable; the margin inflexed, at first 
tomentose. Stipe paler, here and there becoming purplish, tumid in the 
middle. Lamelle thick, purple, broader behind, decurrent. Spores 
white or pale yellow. 
In woodlands on clay soil. Pileus 2 in. across, stipe 24 in. high, 2 
in. thick in the middle. Thisis one of Mr. Lea’s new species, found 
first at Cincinnati, then at Waynesville. It hasalso been found in New 
York by Prof. Chas. H. Peck, the State botanist. 
32, A. Laccatus, Scop.—Pileus somewhat membranaceous, convex, 
then versiform, somewhat umbilicate, when mature, mealy or somewhat 
scaly, hygrophanous. Stipe stuffed, equal, tough, fibrous. Lamelle 
adnate, thick, distant, brightly colored, at length white-pzuinose. 
In woods. Pileus 1-2 in. across, stipe 2-5 in. long. The pileus 
is usually reddish brown or ochraceous, sometimes of a brighter color. 
The lamelle are commonly flesh-color or violaceous. 
b. The whole fungus white or whitish. 
33. A. connExuS, Peck.—Pileus thin, convex or expanded, some- 
what umbonate, minutely silky, white, sometimes faintly tinged with 
blue, especially at the margin. Stipe solid, nearly equal, whitish. 
Lamelle crowded, narrow, whitish, decurrent. Spores somewhat 
ovoid, .007.005 mm.
