and Miscellaneous Particulars. 
the expanded pileus eighteen inches over, the stem as thick as a man's wrist, the gills very pale, the curtain 
tough, and thick as leather, and the juice yellowish. A plant of this kind, as Dr. "Withering informs us, was 
gathered on an old hot-bed in a garden in Birmingham, which weighed fourteen pounds. 
Greville says, " A. Georgii derives its name, according to Parkinson, from springing up about the time of 
St. George's day. It is unquestionably the largest of the British agarics. It has been known to weigh fourteen 
pounds. Mr. Hopkirk mentions one that weighed five pounds six ounces, and measured forty-three inches in 
circumference; but Mr. Stackhouse found it to attain the enormous size of eighteen inches in diameter, which 
is fifty-four in circumference, having a stem as thick as a man's wrist. The best distinguishing marks are, the 
extreme paleness of the lamellas at the period of the bursting of the veil, compared with the true mushroom ; 
the greater convexity and thickness of flesh at the same period ; and shortly afterwards, the more yellowish 
and tough pileus." 
\ 32. Hypholoma. So called, from v<p(x.i, a cup, and Xu/jloc, an edge. Wood species growing in patches. 
\ 33. Psilocybe. From -^iXos, thin, and xv^vi, a head. A very natural assemblage. The species are for the 
most part terrestrial, inhabiting fertile and somewhat fenny places, growing either solitary or in groups, not 
eatable, and subject to much variety of appearance. 
§ 34. Psathyra. So called, from -^ccB-vpog, fragile, on account of their remarkable brittleness. Many specie.^ 
are found upon moist wood, and in grassy places on a fertile soil. 
\ S5. Coprinarius. All the species are found on dung, whence their name, from xo'xtia., dung. 
2366. Coprinus. Named for the same reason as the last. The species are gregarious and fugacious. They 
are found on dunghiUs, rich gr-assy places, and in the hollow trunks of decayed trees. The taste of the
