Pileus resupinate, sessile or extended behind. * Pileus irregular, stem excentric. 1. P. conchatus Fr.—Pileus 5-10 cent. (2-4 in.) broad, cin- namon then becoming pale, fleshy-pliant, thin, unequal, excentric, even dimidiate, flaccid, squamulose when old. Stem about 12 mm. (>£ in.) long, 8 mm. (4 lin.) thick, un- equal, often compressed, pubescent at the base. Gills deeply decurrent in parallel lines, by no means anasto- mosing, but here and there branched and unequal, at first whitish or pale flesh-colour, at length ochraceous- wood-colour, crisped when dry. Caespitose, often imbricated and grow- ing into each other. No form is constant. So much allied to P. tortilosus that the real difference is not apparent. It is thinner, more conchate and more lobed than that On trunks. Rare. June-Oct. L V. Panus torulosus. One-fourth natural size. Name—concha, a shell. Shell-shaped. Fr. Alonogr. \\. p. 240. Hym.

(2-3 in.) broad, some- what flesh-colour, but varying rufescent - livid and becoming violet, entire^ but very excentric, fleshy, somewhat compact when young, plano-infundibuliform, even, smooth ; flesh pallid. Stem short, commonly cent, (i in.), solid, oblique, tough, firm, com- monly with grey, but often violaceous down. Gills decurrent, somewhat distant, simple, separate behind, reddish then tan- colour. Very changeable in form, at first fleshy-pliant, at length coriaceous. In the covering of the stem it approaches Paxillus atro-tomentosus, but there is no affinity between them. On old stumps. Frequent. Spores 6x3 mk. Name—torulus, a tuft of hair. From the hairy down on the stem. Fr. Monogr. ii. /. 240.
