(i lin.) broad, whitish then be- coming dingy flesh-colour. A very remarkable species, of which it is difficult to indicate the nearest affinity. Easily distinguished from neighbouring species by the pileus not becoming pale with XVIII. Agaricus {Ecciiia') atro- puticUis. One-half natural size. In grassy places. Elmhurst, &c.

Gills adnato-decurrent, somewhat undulated, distant, rosy, the irregular margin darker. Its closest ally is A. atridcs, from which it differs in the smooth stem, deli- cate colour, &c. Spores irregular. Among fir-leaves, &c. Aboyne, &c. Pileus about cent, (i in.) broad. Stem about 4 cent. (iK in.) long, fiexuous. Name—caro, flesh; griseus, grey. B. &• Br. n. looi. t. i^-/. i. C.
