NEW BRITISH FUNGI. 
gills subdecurrent, yellow flesh colour ; milk white (spores 8-9 fx 
diam.). — Cooke Ulus. t. 1010. 
In swampy ground. Orton Moss, near Carlisle. 
Fries quotes Krombholz’s figure under L. helvus with the note 
“haud bona.” It should doubtless be kept distinct, if only as a 
sub-species. 
Lactarius (Russularia) mammosus, Fr. Hym. Fur. 434. 
var. monstrosus, Fr. Icon. t. 170, f. 2. 
Pileus fleshy, acutely umbonate, then depressed (2-3 in. diam.), 
dry, zoneless, lurid, clad with an interwoven grey down ; stem 
stuffed, then hollow, pubescent, pallid (with a lurid purplish tinge, 
2-3 in. long, \ in. thick, or more), gills adnate, crowded, whitish, 
then pale ferruginous (scarcely other than whitish in this variety). 
Milk white, slowly acrid (spores about 10/x). — Cooke Ulus. t. 995. 
On the ground. Scarborough. (G. Massee). 
Lactarius Terreyi, B. Sf Br., Ann. N. Fist. No. 1673, seems to be 
the same as L. cimicarius , or a variety of L. camphoratus, to which 
the specimens are referred in Herb. Berkeley. 
Lactarius (Russularia) spinosulus, Quel. Norm. p. 20, t. 3,/. 10. 
var. violaceus, CooJce Ulus. t. 998 B. 
Pileus thin, convex, then depressed (1 in. diam.), dry, tomentose, 
somewhat aculeate, violet, flesh paler, margin incurved, stem equal, 
stuffed, granulate, paler, growing pallid (2 in. long, £ in. thick), 
gills decurrent, narrow, thin, yellowish. Milk white, soon acrid. 
On the ground. Chats worth, Sept. 1873. 
Lactarius (Russularia) cremor, Fries Hym. Fur. 432. 
var. pauper, Karst. Syml. x p. 58. Icon. f. 26. 
Pileus fleshy, soft, rather plane, smooth, without zones, flesh 
colour, then yellowish, or gilvous tan colour, rather ochraceous when 
dry, punctate (3 in. broad or more), margin membranaceous, at 
length pectinately sulcate ; stem hollow, equal, naked, smooth, 
paler than the pileus (about 2 in. long J in. thick), gills adnate, 
rather distant, thin, soft, colour of the pileus, flesh without juice, 
slowly acrid, white (spores 8-9 [x). — Cke. Illus. t. 1008. 
Under fir trees. Carlisle. 
Russula (Fragiles) Barlae, Quelet. Ass. Fr. 1883, t. vi., /. 12. Sacc. 
Syll. v., 1860. 
Pileus convex, then flattened and depressed (2|-3| in.), compact, 
viscid, then dry, even, peach coloured, yellow, tinged with orange 
red, sometimes cracking ; flesh firm, sweet, white, slightly smelling 
of melilot, stem fleshy, spongy, firm, silky pruinose, snow white 
(2 in. long, \ in. thick), gills white, then becoming pallid ochra- 
ceous. Spores sub-globose, granular, 12 x 10 p. 
Amongst grass, under trees. Kew, Epping Forest. 
Our specimens seem to be referable to this species, the pileus has 
the centre always darker, tinged with a peculiar dull red, the 
margin bright ochre with a tinge of orange, the whole becoming- 
pale and ochraceous in drying. The flesh of the stem sometimes 
turns reddish brown when cut, and the odour in age is rather that 
of crab than of melilot.
