Subgenns XXXIV. PAN^IOLUS (iravofoAos, all-variegated). Veil woven, often awanting. Stem polished, slightly firm. Pileus slight- ly fleshy, without strice, the margin exceeding the gills. Gills ascending into the top of the cone, " papilion- aceous" that is variegated, when young here and there somewhat pale yellowish in dry weather. Commonly growing on dung. Fr. Hym. Eur. P- 309- The species will usually be found in rich places, near villages, &c., in summer and late autumn. None are edible. * Pileus, with a gelatinous - liquescent cuticle, viscous, shining- when dry. ** Pileus {(damp) moist, opaqzie, bibulous, when dry somewhat flocculose. *** Pileus dry, smooth, slightly shining, not zoned. **** Pileus dry, smooth, zoned round the margin. * Pileus viscous, shining when dry. 760.
