slightly zonate, testaceous to ferruginous-orange; context rather 
thin, white, somewhat acrid ; lamellae narrow, adnexed, many 
times inserted, of medium distance, cream-colored ; latex not ob- 
tained, either from context or lamellae, but the latter became 
stained as though a latex were present ; spores subglobose to 
broadly ellipsoid, echinulate, hyaline, 7 ~ 9 l*- stipe subcylin- 
dric, glabrous, smooth, white, suffused with dark-cremeous stains, 
solid, white within, 4 cm. long, 14 mm. thick. 
Type collected on the ground in deciduous woods near the New 
York Botanical Garden in September, 1911, by W. A. Murrill. 
Not found since. 
Lactaria maculosa sp. nov. 
Mild-flavored Spotted Lactaria 
Plate 187. Figure 4. X i 
Pileus convex to subexpanded, decidedly depressed at the cen- 
ter, reaching 10 cm. broad ; surface smooth, glabrous, somewhat 
viscid, blotched or spotted, avellaneous-isabelline ; context rather 
thick, white, unchanging, mild ; lamellae adnate, arcuate, narrow, 
inserted, crowded, dull-whitish to rosy-isabelline ; latex white, 
becoming slightly yellow on exposure, perfectly mild ; spores glo- 
bose or subglobose, strongly echinulate, hyaline, 8-10 /x in diam- 
eter ; stipe short, sharply tapering downward, similar to the pileus- 
in color and surface markings but with more white intermixed,, 
hollow, white within, except at the base, where it is lilac-tinted,. 
5 cm. long, 2 cm. thick. 
Type collected on the ground in woods near the New York Bo- 
tanical Garden, September 7, 1911, by W. A. Murrill. Found! 
only once. In general appearance this species resembles Lactaria: 
maculata, but the latex of the latter is acrid and unpleasant. 
Lactaria torminosa (Schaeff.) Pers. 
Woolly Lactaria 
Plate 187. Figure 5 . X i 
Pileus fleshy, convex, depressed at the center, finally nearly 
infundibuliform, 4-10 cm. broad; surface pale-pinkish-yellow or 
pale-ochroleucous or ochraceous tinged with incarnate, often 
zoned with deeper color, sometimes nearly white and azonate, 
viscid when wet, glabrous at the center; margin involute at first, 
then merely deflexed, persistently covered with long, white tomen-
