Stem somewhat cartilaginous, fistulose with a tube, polished, fragile. Pileus conical or campanulate, membranaceous, the margin at the first straight and ad- pressed to the stem. Gills becoming purple or fuscous. Slender, fragile, hygrophanous. [The series of tough species does not exist among the Psathyras ; the analogous forms will be found among the tough species of Psiiocybe.] Some of the last spe- cies of Hypholoma and Psiiocybe are very closely allied to them. The Coprinarii are readily distinguished by the gills being white or cinereous then black, not fuscous nor becoming purple. Fr. Hym. 304. Psathyra corresponds with Mycena, No lane a, Galera, and Psathyrella. All the species grow on the ground or on XXXIV. Agaricus (Psathyra) hi frons. One-third natural size. I.
