elliptic-oblong, continuous, colourless, 3 X 1 ft ; basidia projecting 
considerably above the gonidiophores, cylindrical, bifurcate at the 
apex, 55-60 x 5-6 p. Spores elliptic-oblong, colourless, with an 
oblique apiculus at the base, triseptate, 14 X 5 p.

By M. C. Cooke. 
Agaricus (Flammula) Aldridgei, Massee. 
Pileus convex, then infundibuliform (1^-2 in.), with a some- 
what involute margin, dry, velvety, testaceous with a tinge of 
orange. Stem slender, equal, flexuous, hollow (4 in. by ^ or J in.), 
smooth, of the same colour, with a white floccose mycelium at the 
base. Gills deeply decurrent, rather crowded, lanceolate, golden 
yellow, becoming ferruginous yellow. Spores slightly apiculate at 
the base, 16 X 5 ft. 
On the ground. Petersfield. 
A remarkably distinct and characteristic species, near A. gymno - 
podius. 
Paxillus subinvolutus, Batsch jig. 204. Inocybe subinvoluta, Sacc. 
Syll. 613. 
On a careful consideration of the original description and figure, 
and comparison with living specimens, we have come to the con- 
clusion that the species of Batsch was really a Paxillus , with a 
rather lateral stem, and gills parting from the pileus. Spores 
amber, 7 X 5 ft. 
On the ground. Sussex. 
The following is the description given by Batsch to accompany 
his figure : — 
Pileus subfoveatus, et subobliquus, margine exteriore deflexus, 
eximio inferne demum arcte involutus, superficie glaber, et mar- 
gine convexo, citius attenuato, excepto, fere totus constans e stipitis 
crassi terminali dilatatione, stipitis crassitem non multum excedente. 
Stipes validus strictus, rudis, superficie subaequalis, nitoris expers, 
rugis obliquis coalescentibus in infera parte obductus, paulluluni 
elatis, sed primum crebro contactu clarioribus ; superne versus 
lamellas tomentosus. Color magis in carneum vergit. Basis 
obtusa terree innascitur. Lamellas elongatae longiores, sensim 
stipiti effusae ; secundi ordinis oblongae, pone obliquae truncatae, 
una cum prioribus integrae, pileo parallelae ; tertii ordinis mar- 
ginales minutae, oblongae, inferne convexae. Omnes nec ultra 
modum angustatae, nec coalescentes ; substantia pallida, vix in 
colorem ochraceo-livescentem vergens, medullosa, solum in cortice 
fibrosa, obscurior, uda.
