fibrillose towards the margin, 4-9 cm. ; g. adnate, slightly sinuate, crowded, broadish 
but not ventricose, greyish then brown ; s. solid, firm, equal or often slightly narrowed 
downwards, or subfusiform, colour of p., with concentric squarrose and revolute 
floccose scales up to the distinctly marked annular zone, smooth and pallid above, 
5-9 cm.; sp. pip-shaped, smooth, 11-13x5-6/*; c. ventricose, fairly abundant, 
70-90 x 1 2-1 7 /*. Flesh white. 
On the ground in woods. Britain, France, Sweden, Germany. 
The general appearance of this species suggests a small specimen of Pholioia 
squarrosa. Often smaller than the measurements given above. There is no tinge 
of blue nor green on the stem. 
(Specimens from Sweden, determined by Dr. R. Fries, examined.)

P. convex then expanded, often umbonate, tawny-ochre, densely covered with 
similarly coloured fibrillose scales, centre somewhat smooth and often areolate, 
1-1-5 cm. ; g. somewhat distant, broad, sinuate, villose from the numerous cystidia, 
pale tawny; s. subequal, fibrillose, yellowish, stuffed then partly hollow, 1-3 cm. ; 
flesh yellowish; sp. obovate, smooth, 9-1 1 x 6-7 /* ; c. subclavate, 70-90 x 10-13 /*. 
On the ground. Portugal. 
Resembling I. dulcamara and I. caesariata, differing in the evidently scaly pileus, 
broader spores, and presence of numerous cystidia.

P. campanulate then expanded and broadly umbonate, fibrillose then squamulose, 
yellowish-red to flesh-colour, margin fimbriate, 6-8 cm. ; g. crowded, slightly sinuato- 
adnate, broad, greyish-cinnamon then spotted with red or entirely reddish, edge paler, 
fimbriate; s. solid, sometimes narrowed downwards, somewhat rooting, slightly 
fibrillose, reddish, apex white, furfuraceous, 6-8 cm. long, 10-15 mm. thick, flesh red 
from the first; sp. pip-shaped, smooth, 9-10x6/*; c. basidia ventricose or clavate, 
55-65x12-16/*. Flesh of p. white, becoming red when cut. Smell very strong, 
like ripe pears. 
In pine and other woods. Britain, France, Austria. 
Differs from /. pyriodora in being more robust in build, deeper red colour, and 
stronger odour. As defined above, this Fungus appears to be a distinct species, yet 
I am not certain that we are dealing with more than one species, of which I. pyriodora 
and I. incarnata represent the two poles. Transitional forms are not uncommon in 
this country which are just off one type and tending towards the other. 
During the Y. N. U. Fungus Foray at Helmsley, specimens of the I. incarnata 
type were found which certainly were exaggerations of this type ; pileus broken up 
into coarse subsquarrose scales, colour deep red everywhere, smell exceedingly strong 
and resembling that of hyacinth flowers. 
Morphologically there is no difference between /. pyriodora and I. incarnata.
