. British fungi (hymenomycetes). Basidiomycetes; Fungi -- Great Britain. I2O AGARICUS. Mycena. Subgenits VII. MYCENA (/ivxrjs, a fungus). Fr. Syst. Myc. i. p. 140. Stem fistulose, cartilaginous. Pileus somewhat mem- branaceous, more or less striate, at the first conico- or parabolico-cylindrical by reason of the margin being at the first straight, and either clasping the stem which is attenuated upwards, or pressed close and parallel to it. Gills not decurrent (or only uncinate by a small tooth). Epiphytal or rooted, slender, somewhat campanulate, scarce- ly umbilicate. Fr. Hyvi. Eur. p. 129.

Distinguished from the minute Col- lybiae by the margin of the pileus never being involute, but straight and pressed parallel to the stem, and from the Mycenarian Omphalias by the pile- us being commonly umbonate. Some ^^ _ last far into autumn or winter; others are very fugacious. Most of them are inodorous, but some have an alkaline smell or an oclour of radish. None of them are r'f VIII. Agaricits (iWycetia) poly- grammus. One-fourth natural size. I. Calodontes (xaXd?, beautiful; 6Sov?, a tooth). Stem juiceless, base not dilated into a disc. Edge of gills darker, denticulate (more or less, Monogr.}, a mark by which they are distinguished from all others, except A. sanguin- olentus, which has a milky stem. By far the most distinguished species. II. Adonidere (from Adonis, denoting beauty). Stem juiceless, base not dilated into a disc. Gills of one colour, and not of a different colour at the edge, nor changing colour. Colotir pure, bright, not becoming fuscous or cin- ereous. Growing singly on the ground (except A. Iris) and requiring to be carefully distinguished from white and coloured varieties of Rigipedes, the gills of which turn pale from white. III. Rigipedes (rigid-stemmed). Stem firm, rigid, somewhat tough, juice- less, somewhat strigose and rooted at the base. Gills changing colour, white then grey or reddish, commonly at length connected by veins. Pileus n
