The Mycologic Flora of the Miami Valley, O. 191 
B. Stipe rooting. definitely tubular, plainly cartilaginous. 
c. Stipe woolly below, glabrous above. 
5. M. prastosmus, Fr.—Ill-scented. Pileus somewhat membranace- 
ous, tough, campanulate-convex then explanate, obtuse, rugulose. 
Stipe hollow; above pallid, glabrous; below thickened, pallid then 
reddish or brown, somewhat tomentose. Lamelle attached, rather 
close, white. 
Upon leaves in oak woods. Pileus 3-1 in. in diameter, the stipe 2-3 
in. long and a line thick. The pileus whitish, the disk often darkened, 
.the stipe tough, dilated at the base, incurved and adhering to the 
leaves; odor alliaceous, strong, persistent. 
6. M. Frusco-purPUREUS, Pers.—Pileus a little fleshy, convexo-plane 
somewhat umbilicate, expallent. Stipe hollow, glal-rous, dark purple; 
the base reddish-strigose. Lamelle annulate-attached, at length free, 
distant, reddish. : 
In woods among the leaves of beech. Smaller when cespitose, 
larger when simple. Pileus 4-1 in. broad, stipe 1-3 in. long. Pileus 
dark purple when dry alutaceous. 
d. Stipe velvety or pruinose throughout. 
7. M. pyRRocEPHALUS, Berk.—-Pileus a little fleshy, convex then 
plane, umbilicate, striate-plicate, red-brown. Stipe hollow, densely 
velvety, brown, pale at the apex. Lamelle adnate, lax, rather distant, 
somewhat ventricose, white then pallid. 
In woods, growing among leaves and on rotten wood. Pileus 4-1 in. 
in diameter, the stipe 2-3 in. long. This is one of Mr. Lea’s new 
species; my specimens agree perfectly except the size, but I judge by 
the concluding remark in Mr. Berkeley’s description, that this is vari- 
able. 
8. M. eryrHropus, Fr.—Pileus a little fleshy, convex then plane, 
obtuse, even, growing pale, finally rugose. Stipe hollow, striate, glab- 
rous, dark red, somewhat pruinose when dry; the base white-strigose. 
Lamelle seceding-free, broad, lax, venose-vonnected, entire, whitish, 
In beech woods, among the leaves and on trunks. Pileus $-1 in. 
broad, stipe 14-24 in. long. Pileus varying in cvlor, commonly white 
or pallid. Stipe firm, terete, paler at the apex; finally uniform in 
color, somewhat compressed, villous inside. Lamelle loose, crisp, 
connected by veins.
