AGARICUS horizontalis. Bull. 324. With. v. 4. p. 11. ed. 3.
Often grows in abundance on the trunks of old elm trees late in the autumn, during rainy weather or soon after. It sometimes resembles Agaricus corticalis, tab. 243. which has a hollow stipes and fixed gills. The present fungus has a solid stipes and loose gills. They are rounded off between the pileus and stipes, if it can be so termed, as the stipes swells into the pileus imperceptibly.
TAB. CCCXLII.
AGARICUS inornatus.
I cannot find a description or figure of this Agaric. It is scarcely to be distinguiflied in shape from Agaricus aromaticus, tab. 144. but the fixed lamellæ when young, and decurrent when older, or, when the pileus is funnel-formed, being conllant, will help to distinguish it. The base is sometimes a little bulbous. Its odour is not peculiar; something like that of Agaricus campesris.
TAB. CCCXLII.
AGARICUS parasitcus
Found in bundles on some of the larger decayed Agarics in very wet weather. It has a hollow stipes, the gills or lamellæ fixed, or somewhat decurrent, and clumfy. The stipes and the pileus are nearly white, with sometimes a brownish umbo. The gills sometimes are of a flesh colour.
