A few grow on the ground, the greater num- ber on wood, passing into Pholiotae. Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 244. If Fiammuia were restricted to spe- cies with truly decurrent gills it would correspond with Clitocybe. Spores mostly pure ferruginous; some are fuscous - ferruginous, others tawny- ochraceous. The species appear late _^_^^^^^^^^^^^__ in the season. Taste insipid or bitter. None edible. XXIV. Agaricus (Fiammuia) flavidus. One-half natural size. j Gymnoti (ywjmws, naked). Veil none; pileus dry, most frequently squamulose. Spores ferruginous, in A. decipiens fuscous-ferruginous. II. Lubrici (lubricus, slimy). Pileus covered with a contimwus, somewhat separable, smooth, viscous pellicle; cortina manifest, fibrillose. Spores ferru- ginous, not tawny, but fuscous-ferruginous in A. carbonarius. Gregarious, growing on the ground, rarely on wood. They correspond with the Hebelo- mata, but are easily distinguished by the gills not being sinuate, by the more viscous pellicle being somewhat separable, by the apex of the stem not being pruinose, and by the odour, &c. III. Udi (udus, moist). Cuticle of the pileus contimwus, not distinct nor separable, smooth (here and there with a superficial covering) moist or a little viscid in rainy weather. Cortina manifest, appendiculate. Spores not tawny nor ochraceous. Allied to the Pholiotce, caespitose, growing on wood, most distinct from each other. IV. Sapinei (sapimis, pine). Pileus scarcely pelliculose (the flesh, however, scissile or torn above into scales), not viscous, at first somewhat incrusted. Veil fibrilloso-adpressed to the stem, not furnished with an appendiculate cor-
