Mossy ground in groves of balsam. North Elba. September. This small species belongs to the section Agaricoides, and is apparently closely allied to C. albidus, from which its smaller size and different color distinguish it. The pileus is sometimes deeply umbilicate. _Peck_, 42d Rep. N.Y. State Bot. Frequent in pine woods of New Jersey, near Haddonfield, where the plant is sturdier than described. Though small it grows gregarious and in troops from which appetizing quantities can be gathered. It makes a pretty dish of pinkish hue and one of rare excellence. =C. lutes´cens= Bull.—yellowish. (Plate CXXXVI, fig. 9, p. 508.) =Pileus= thin, fleshy, convex, umbilicate, brownish-floccose, yellowish. =Gills= very distant, sparingly branched, arcuate-decurrent, pale ochraceous. =Stem= slender, slightly tapering downward, smooth, shining, bright orange-tinted yellow, stuffed or hollow. =Height= 2–3 in., breadth of =Pileus= 8–15 lines. Mossy ground in woods. Catskill and Adirondack mountains, also Sandlake. August to October. This is regarded by some as a variety of A. tubæformis. _Peck_, 23d Rep. N.Y. State Bot. In mixed and scrub-pine woods near Haddonfield, N.J.; mixed woods Angora and Kingsessing, Philadelphia. Perhaps constancy to C. cibarius has influenced the writer in favor of members of its family, and accounts for the gusto in “Fine” set opposite his notes to the present species. Nevertheless such is his opinion. ** _Stem tubular._ =C. flocco´sus= Schw.—woolly. (Plate XLVI, fig. 1, p. 214.) =Pileus= fleshy, elongated funnel-form or trumpet shape, floccose-squamose, ochraceous-yellow. =Gills= vein-like, close, much anastomosing above, long decurrent and subparallel below, concolorous. =Stem= very short, thick, rarely deeply rooting. =Height= 2–4 in., breadth of =Pileus= at the top 1–3 in. Woods and their borders. Not rare. Utica, _Johnson_. Albany and Sandlake. July and August. _Peck_, 23d Rep. N.Y. State Bot. =Spores= 12.5–15×7.6µ _Peck_. New York, _Peck_, Rep. 23; Maine, _Mrs. Stella F. Fairbanks_; West Virginia, _McIlvaine_. A beautiful species of good quality. (Plate XLIX.) [Illustration: CANTHARELLUS BREVIPES. Small plant, two-thirds natural size. ] =C. bre´vipes= Pk.—_brevis_, short; _pes_, a foot. (Plate XLVI, fig. 5, p. 214.) =Pileus= fleshy, obconic, glabrous, alutaceous or dingy cream-color, the thin margin erect, often irregular and lobed, tinged with lilac in the young plant; folds numerous, nearly straight on the margin, abundantly anastomosing below, pale umber tinged with lilac. =Stem= short, tomentose-pubescent, ash-colored, solid, often tapering downward. =Spores= yellowish, oblong-elliptical, uninucleate, 10–12µ×5µ. =Plant= 3–4 in. high. =Pileus= 2–3 in. broad. =Stem= 4–6 lines thick. Woods. Ballston, Saratoga county. July.
