Gills sinuate, adnate or decurrent,.in some of the Resupinate often starting from an excentric more or less elliptical, smooth. (Fig. 20.) The majority of the species grow on trunks, branches, twigs,,moss, etc., a few are terrestrial; many are large, handsome andpolymorphic; some are small and resupinate. They generallyappear late in the year, 421 and 422 commonly grow in the springand reappear year after year on the same habitat. All are harmless,,and a few are considered by some to be edible. All become putridwhen old, and none
