TABLE OF THE SUBGENERA OF HYPORHODIIL. 
A, Stipe central, lamelle free. 
10. Votvarra.—Veil universal, discrete, membranaceous, persistent. 
11. PLurrvus.—-Veil none, margin of the pileus straight. 
B. Stipe central, lamelle attached. 
a. Stipe fleshy or fibrous, 
12. Entotoma.—Lamelle sinuate. 
13. CxiropiLus.—Lamelle decurrent. 
b. Stipe cartilaginous. 
14, Lepronia.—Pileus convexo-plane, the margin at first inflexed. 
15. NoLtanea.—Pileus campanulate, the margin straight. (No 
species yet.) 
SuspcENnus X.—Votvaria, Fr. 
Spores rose-color. Veil universal, free persistent, discrete from the 
epidermis of the pileus (volva). Lamelle rotundate-free, ventricose. 
81. A. BomBycinus, Scheff.—White. Pileus fleshy, soft, campanu- 
jate then expanded, somewhat umbonate, silky-fibrillose. Stipe solid, 
tapering upward, glabrous; the volva very ample. Lamelle free, flesh- 
color. Spores regular, .007X.005 mm. 
Upon trunks of trees in woods; sometimes growing out of knot-holes 
of standing trees, or even out of the augur holes in Sugar Maple. 
Pileus 3-5 in. broad, the stipe about 3 in. long. The pileus is at first 
inclosed in the large slimy tough volva, but is soon protruded leaving 
the volva persistent at the base of the stipe; it usually remains broadly 
campanulate, and is covered over with white or yellowish-white silky 
fibrils. This is one of the most showy Agarics, and is not uncommon 
in the Miami Valley. 
SuBpGENus XI.—P.uutews, Fr. 
Spores rosy. Destitute of volva and annulus. Lamelle rotundate 
behind, free.
