million or clay color, margins lighter, and under the microscope fringed 
with cylindrical, obtuse, hair-like bodies (abortive cystidia 1 ?) Stem 
2J-5 cm high, 2-4 mm thick, subattenuated and farinose above, white, solid, 
loosely fibrillose below, sub-bulbous and white tomentose at base, 
faintly annular marked above the middle when young, but this is hardly 
discernible in the mature plant. Spores brown, iuequilaterally ellipti¬ 
cal, 7-8 by 4-5/i. Basidia clavate cylindrical, about 22 by 8/q with spo- 
rophores about 3J/i long. Cystidia ventricose-fusoid or flask-shaped, 
40-45 by 14-16/1. The disk of the pileus is carnose, and in wet weather 
rimose-squamose. 
Well marked by its conic campauulate pileus and white stem, which 
remains white till the plant withers. 
This and the other species of Inocijbe here described were all found 
at Newfield, jST. J. 
Inocybe murino-lilacinus, E. & E. (N. A. F. 1905.) On bare 
ground under chestnut and filbert trees, September to October. 
Pileus convex, 2-4 cm diameter, umbonate-discoid, silky-fibrillose, at 
length becomingsquamulose around the margin, umbonate-discoid in the 
center, mouse-color, with a tinge of lilac when fresh and young. Stem 2 
2-4 cm high, 2-4 mm thick, fistulose and soon hollow. Spores narrow-el¬ 
liptical, with an oblique apiculus, rust-color, 7-9 by 4 -5/4. Basidia 22- 
25 by 7/i, clavate cylindrical. 
The broad, prominent disk of the pileus either has a small umbo in 
the center or a slight depression and is generally surrounded (about half¬ 
way to the margin) with a distinct ridge or zone. The margin also pro¬ 
jects slightly and is a little lighter colored, and, under the lens, sub- 
fimbriate. 
Inocybe cicatricatus, E. & E. (N. A. F., 4901.) In gravelly sand 
near filbert trees, August-October. 
Pileus broadly and obtusely conical or conic-campanulate, expanding 
to convex, 2-2J cm across, densely gray fibrillose-rimose, except the 
smooth (livid when moist) disk. Flesh white, compact in the disk, 
almost disappearing towards the margin, which is a mere membrane. 
Lamella?, ascending, narrowly attached, with a slight decurrent tooth, 
becoming sub sinuate, dirty white at first, becoming dirty cinnamon 
brown, 3-4 nuu wide. Stem stout, short (lj-3 cm ), 2-4 mm thick, sub-bulb¬ 
ous at base, solid, nearly white, and covered with a short tomentose- 
pubescent coat at first, finally darker and smoother and very often 
eaten out by worms so as to appear hollow and then easily splitting. 
Spores very irregular in shape, mostly longer than broad, 7-9 by 5-6/i. 
Cystidia broad-fusoid, 50-55 by 12-15/1. 
This comes near A. umbonionotus, Pk., in the 38th report, but the pileus 
is.not umbouate nor are the spores nodulose, but simply angular (sub- 
quadrate), as represented in his A. maritimoides , which again is said to 
be “densely squamulose with small, erector squamose-fibrillose scales.”
