Agaricus (PleuYotus) laurocexasi, B. Jf- Br. 
Oyster-shaped. Pilens sulcate, brown, with a very thin cuticle ; 
stem obsolete ; gills connected by veins ; spores ovate. B. 4- B7\, 
Ann. Nat. Hist., No. 1854. 
On the naked trunk of a laurel. Coed Coch. 
“ Pileus rather more than an inch across ; the cuticle is ex- 
tremely thin, and gives way at the furrows so as to expose the 
substance of the pileus. Spores *0008 mm. long.” B. ^ B?'. 
Agaricus (Pleurotus) palmatus, Bull. 
The spores of this species are pale ochre-coloured, *0004111. 
(*01 mm.) ill diameter ; it has the same right to be placed in 
PleuroUis as the rosy-spored A. euos?nns.” B. 4' Ann. Nat. 
Hist., No. 1855. 
Agaricus (Fluteus) spilopus, B. ^ Br. 
Dwarf. Pileus brown, rugulose ; stem flexuous, punctate with 
black; spores globose, even. B. ^ Br. Ann. Nat. Hist., No. 
1856. 
On wood (?). (C. E. Broome.) 
“ AlMed to A. nanus. 
Agaxicus (Leptonia), aethiops, Fr. Hym. Eur., p. 202. 
Pileus rather fleshy, piano-depressed, without striae, shining, 
black, then smoky, smooth, but clad with innate fibrils ; stem 
stuffed, thin, smooth, tawny, becoming black, punctate with 
black above ; gills adnate, whitish, with the edge of the same 
colour. B. 4" Br. Ann. Nat. Hist., No. 1857. 
In grassy places. Coed Coch. 
Agazicus (Eccilia) atzides, Fr. Hym. Eur., p. 212. 
Pileus somewhat membranaceous, plane, deeply umbilicate, 
striate, virgate with black ; stem fistulose, punctate with black 
above, pallid ; gills deeply decurrent, attenuated behind, rather 
crowded, pallid, edge black and toothed. B. 4 Ann. Nat. 
Hist., No. 1858. 
In moist woods. Hereford. 
“ This is not the plant figured by Quelet.” B. 4 Er. 
Agazicus (Acetahulazia) acetabulosus, Sow. t. 303. 
Berk. 4 Er. Ann. Nat. Hist., No. 1859. 
“ This curious species has never been satisfactorily elucidated. 
The occurrence of an allied form from Swan River necessitates the 
proposition of a new section {Acetabularia), analogous to Volvaria 
and Chitonia. The spores in the original specimen of Sowerby, 
now (with the drawing) in the British Museum, are clay- 
coloured.” B. 4 Er. 
Agazicus (Fholiata) ezubius, Fr. Hym. Eur., p. 216. 
E. 4 Er. Ann. Nat. Hist., No. 1860. Agaricus (Pholiota) 
Leveillianus, D. 4 AI., in Cooke’s “ Handbook,” p. 110. 
“ This is clearly the same species with A. denigritus, the spores 
of which are brown.” B. 4 Er.
