Universal veil distinct from the pileus ; hymenophore distinct; gills free ; spores pallid tawny or brown. Analogous to Volvaria and Chi- tonia. 1. A. acetabulosus Sow.—Pileus about cent, (i in.) broad, light- brown, convex, striate especially at the margin. Stem 5 cent. (2 in.) long, white, equal, hollow; volva nearly white. Gills free, narrow, hispid, light-brown. Bank of Thames near high-wate May. This is very like a poor specimen of A. congregatus, but the pileus is more plaited. The lamellae are remarkably glandular on their sides ; and instead of a bare base or foot, it stands in a little socket-like volva. Sow. The accompanying illustration is from the original specimen in the British Museum. Sowerby gives also an enlarged section of the gills, and a side of a gill showing very large cystidia. The pileus appears to be slightly split as in A. rimosus. Name—from the cup-like volva. Sow. t. 303. Berk. Linn. Journ. xviii. p. 389. C. Illust. PL 345. VOL. II. X. CII. Acetabularia.
