Agaricus serratus. Hist. 14

Serrate Gill'd [Gilled] Agaric.

This beautifull [beautiful] & singular Agarick I gathered
Under the Beech Trees in the Park at Bramham, the
Seat of St. John Goodrich. August 28. 1786.

It differs from all the Agarics that I have seen,
in that the Gills are serrated; They are of a fine Gold
colour [color], and the Pileus looks like Cloth of a mixed
purple colour [color]. The stem is solid & destitute of
volva. This is the only specimen I ever met
with, therefore cannot represent it in any
other of it's states or stages,
