A. putidus Fr.—Pileus cent, (i in.) or less broad, some- what olivaceous-grey, hoary when dry, hygrophanous, slightly fleshy, hemispherical, twibonate, soft, even, at the straight margin as well, but occasionally spri?ikled with white silki?iess. Stem 4 cent. (iX iri-) lo^ig"' 6 mm. (3 lin.) thick, hollow, equal, somewhat compressed, soft, somewhat fragile, somewhat striate, grey, covered with a very thin white pruina, which can be rubbed off. Gills apparently free, but slightly adnexed in the top of the cone, crowded, ventricose, 4-6 mm. (2-3 lin.) broad, distinct, cinereotis. A remarkable species. Odour strong, rancid, of new meal. Allied to the rancid Collybice in habit and odour, but the stem is soft, wholly fibrous, by no means cartilaginous. In fir woods. Jedburgh, &c. Name —putidus, stinking, disgusting. Fr.

Syst. Myc. i. 78 (Sub-tribe I). Universal veil, when pres- ent, conspicuous on the pileus like frost or silky dew, but commonly obso- lete. Stem with a spongy stuffing, apt to become hollow, somewhat elastic, externally more compact and fibrous. Margin of the pileus involute. Hy- menophore quite continuous, owing to the apex of the stem being dilated ; gills atte7iuated behind, acute, adftate or decurrent, never sinuate. Growi?2g on the ground, fleshy but comparative- ly tough, for the most part piano-de- pressed or i7ifimdibuliforin. Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 78. The thinner and hygrophanous species are late, and stand low
