The accompanying figures were all drawn from specimens col- 
lected near Bronx Park, New York City. Many of the species 
figured are known to be edible. Dr. Kauffman has assisted me 
with Cortinariiis and Dr. Burlingham with Russula.

Pileus convex, becoming plane, solitary, about 7 cm. broad ; 
surface smooth, hygrophanous, fibrillose-striatulate, rosy-isabel- 
line, margin entire, pallid ; context pale-rosy-isabelline, very thin ; 
lamellae deeply sinuate, rounded behind, very broad, subdistant, 
fulvous ; spores ellipsoid, smooth, subfulvous, 9-10 X 6 /x ; stipe 
cylindric, rosy-isabelline, decorated with the remains of the fuga- 
cious veil, hollow, scarcely enlarged at the base, 5-7 cm. long,

Type collected on the ground in deciduous woods east of the 
New York Botanical Garden, September 10, 1911, by W. A. 
Murrill. The pileus and stipe, as well as the context, are rosy- 
isabelline, or about the color of the back of a man’s hand. This 
color is mostly concealed on the pileus by the hygrophanous char- 
acter of the surface, but it is evident on the margin.
