488 Mas see. — A Monograph of the genus Inocybe , Karsten . 
Amongst grass the pileus is smoother, more tawny, rimoso-sericeus ; gills not 
arcuate behind but broadly adnate (Berk.). 
Allied to I. lanuginosa and I. lacera ; the former differs in the obtuse pileus with 
squarrose squamules at the disc, and the latter in the naked apex of the stem. 
(Type specimen examined.) 
conformata, Karst., Krit. Ofvers. Finl. Basid., p. 465 (1889); Sacc., Syll. ix, 
p. 98; I. pusio, Karst., Krit. Ofvers. Finl. Basid., p. 465 (1889); Sacc., Syll. ix, 
p. 98. 
P. convex then expanded, umbonate, fibrilloso-rimose and sometimes minutely 
adpressed floccoso-squamulose, pale fuscous or tinged rusty, 1-3 cm. ; g. adnexed, 
somewhat crowded, ventricose, pallid then brownish ; s. solid, equal, often fiexuous, 
minutely fibrillose, apex at first tinged violet, 3-5 cm.; sp. pip-shaped, smooth, 8-10 
X 4-6 fi; c. ventricose, 70-80 x 10-15 /x, sometimes much thicker. 
Mossy ground near paths. Finland. 
The two forms enumerated above agree in all essential features, and cannot be 
separated as species ; in fact Karsten states that /. pusio is externally exactly similar 
to I. conformata , but is distinguished by the thicker cystidia. This feature alone, 
however, cannot constitute a species. 
(Types of /. conformata and I. pusio, from Karsten, examined).

Pat., Tab. Anal., no. 540; Ag. dulcamarus , A. and S., Consp. Fung., p. 171 (1805). 
P. campanulate then expanded and umbonate, brownish-olive, floccosely scaly, 
margin more or less fimbriate and silky, 2-5 cm. ; g. narrowed behind, arcuately 
adnexed, rounded in front, crowded, pallid, then distinctly olive ; s. imperfectly hollow, 
fibrillose from the veil, adpressedly scaly, paler than p., apex mealy, 4-6 cm. ; sp. 
pip-shaped, smooth, 11-13x5-6 /x; c. fairly abundant, ventricose, 55-65 x 15-18 /x. 
Flesh tinged yellow. 
On the ground in pine woods, &c., gregarious. Britain, France, Germany, 
Sweden. 
The above diagnosis agrees with the views of Patouillard and Qudlet as to the 
plant described by Fries (Hym. Eur., p. 228) as Ag. ( Ino .) dulcamarus , and referred 
by him to the Fungus described by Albertini and Schweiniz in Consp. Fung., p. 171. 
Why Fries connected the Fungus found by him with the plant mentioned by Albertini 
and Schweiniz is not quite clear, judging from the description furnished by these 
authors, which is as follows : —
