 spores ellipsoid, smooth, hyaline, a few distinctly uninucleate, not 

 apiculate, 7X3-5/*; stipe testaceous, fibrillose, cylindric, equal, 

 not enlarged at the base, rose-colored at the apex, 1.5 cm. long, 

 2 mm. thick; annulus testaceous, superior, very close to the

 surface dry, subglabrous, striate, avellaneous, fuliginous at the 

 center, the cuticle remaining almost unbroken ; lamellae free, 

 white, broad, unequal; spores perfectly globose, hyaline, smooth, 

 5 fx ; stipe 3 cm. long, 3 mm. thick, enlarged above, hollow, glabrous,

 fixed. 



Type collected on the ground between roots of trees in Hyde

9. Lepiota subgrisea sp. nov. 



Pileus small, convex to expanded, slightly umbonate, gregarious, 

 1— 1.5 cm. broad; surface avellaneous, adorned with imbricated 

 scales arranged in a somewhat radiate manner from the glabrous, 

 fuliginous umbo; lamellae free, white, of medium breadth and 

 distance ; spores ellipsoid, smooth, hyaline, uninucleate, apiculate, 

 7X3-5-4/*; stipe white, glabrous, slightly tapering upward, 1.5 

 cm. long, 1-2 mm. thick ; annulus slight, evanescent.

 nate, gregarious, 1-2 cm. broad ; surface yellowish-brown, thickly 

 studded with small, granular, somewhat conical warts, which are 

 slightly browner than the rest of the surface ; lamellae free, white,
