. The mushroom book. A popular guide to the identification and study of our commoner Fungi, with special emphasis on the edible varieties. Mushrooms; Cookery (Mushrooms); cbk. Cap striate, and free from warts Orange Amanita (Edible) Amanita Ccesared Cap or Pileus—Smooth, glabrous, and free from warts or scales. Red or orange, fading to yellow on the margin or all over the cap. Margin distinctly striate. When fully ex- panded, nearly flat. When moist, slightly sticky and viscid. Stem—Yellow. When young, fibrous or cottony within, later hol- low. Wrapper or Volva—White and mem- branous, loosely sheathing the base of the stem. F^y—Covers the gills of the young plant. Remains are seen on the stem only, where it hangs down like a white ruffle. Gills or Lamella—Rounded at the stem end and not attached to the stem. Yellow, an exception to the rule that the col- our of the gills in mature plants resembles the colour of the spores. Young Plant—When young, the cap and stem are contained in a wrap- per not unlike a hen's egg in shape, size, and colour. As the cap and stem within develop, the wrapper ruptures in its upper part, the stem elongates, and the cap is carried up, CS'-sS-re'-i 50.
