Pileus with micaceous squaniules, &C. 14. C. micaceus Fr. A. major.—Pileus at first yellow-ferrug- inous, the even disc darker, at length date - brown - fuscous, somewhat membranaceous, undu- lato-lobed, rimosely split, striate, but not opening into furrows, at first covered with micaceous scales, smooth when these separate. Stems cent. (3 in.) to as much as 20 cent. (8 in.) long, hollow and soft, even, at first obsoletely white-silky then fibroso-fibrillose, whitish. Gills adnexed, lanceolate, linear in deli- quescing, isabelline, becoming brown at the XXXVIII. Coprinns micaceus. One-third natural size. B. minor.—Pileus yellowish - livid when moist, ferruginous-ochraceous when dry, date-brown at the disc, somewhat mem- branaceous, but scissile, oval then campan- \i\, forked-sulcate, the furrows micaceous, soon split at the margin, but even at the disc. Stem equal, 4 mm. (2 lin.) thick, even, sometimes curved, becoming smooth, white. Gills white then livid, at first at the edge then wholly fuscous- blackish. Very changeable, for the most part caespitose. The stems are often angular, from mutual pressure, and sometimes when young have the thickened knot at the middle, as in C. atrame/itarius. In abnormal forms the pileus is unequal, ribbed-sulcate, transversely rimoso-squarrose. On stumps, the ground, £c. Common. April-Nov. Spores 7x8 mk. [V. ; 10 x 5 mk. Name— mica, grain, granule.
