Having made a drawing of this species at the time it was found 
I am able to add somewhat to the above description. It was 
growing on a bramble twig. The largest specimen was scarce half 
an inch high, and the diameter of the pileus about a quarter of an 
inch ; the stem hollow, sprinkled with delicate mealy granules at 
the base, and about half-way up ; gills adnexed behind and 
narrowed in front, whitish, then flesh-coloured, becoming brownish.

“ A pale form occurred at Sibbertoft, which we should have 
been inclined to refer rather to Ag. albocyaneus ; but the cuticle 
peeled off with the greatest ease, and after a heavy rain it dripped 
with gelatinous matter. It resembles greatly Fries’s figure of A. 
torpens, var.” B. Br. Ann. Nat. Hist., No. 1875.
