Mycologia 
soid, smooth, ochraceous-ferruginous, 8.5-11 X4-5j«-; stipe slen- 
der, tapering upward, yellow, darker toward the base, covered 
with numerous brownish or reddish-brown glandular dots which 
blacken with age, solid, yellow within, 4-7 cm. long, 4-8 mm. 
thick. 
This species resembles the preceding and occurs in similar 
localities, but is confined to eastern North America. The speci- 
mens figured did not show the incarnate dots or streaks which 
often appear on the cap, affording a good distinguishing char- 
acter. Boletus flavidus Fries, of Europe, is closely related. 
Ceriomyces subglabripes (Peck) Murrill 
Scurfy-stemmed Ceriomyces 
Plate 80. Figure 6. X i 
Pileus circular, rather thin, subconic or convex to nearly plane, 
occasionally cespitose, 3-10 cm. broad ; surface glabrous, sub- 
viscid when moist, rugose at times, usually so when dry, reddish, 
pale-chestnut, grayish-brown, golden-brown, or rarely darker- 
brown, margin regular, concolorous ; context white or whitish, 
unchangeable, of mild flavor; tubes plane or convex, adnate or 
depressed, lemon-yellow, becoming greenish-yellow or darker 
from the maturing spores, mouths circular to angular, regular, 
rather small, edges entire; spores oblong-fusiform, greenish- 
brown when fresh, soon changing to ochraceous-brown, 12-15 
X 4-5 Ai; stipe central, cylindric, equal or slightly tapering upward, 
light-yellow without and within, sometimes tinged with red near 
the middle or lower down, striate but not reticulate, ornamented 
with small, pallid, scurfy particles, which sometimes partially dis- 
appear with age, 5-7 cm. long, 8-15 mm. thick. 
On the ground in rather thick deciduous woods from Nova 
Scotia to New York. It was impossible to reprdduce in the illus- 
tration the small scurfy particles on the stem which suggested the 
specific name. The section shows the usual smooth form of the 
cap, while the other figure represents the exceptional rugose form. 
Ceriomyces bicolor (Peck) Murrill 
Two-colored Ceriomyces 
Plate 80. Figure 7- X i 
Pileuis somewhat irregular, firm, convex, 5-10 cm. broad; sur' 
face dry, glabrous or finely tomentose or squamulose, at times
