Report of the State Botanist.
white-villose at the base ; spores subelliptical, pointed at each end,
brownish-ferruginous, .0006 to .OOOoS in. long, .0003 broad.
Pileus 6 to 12 lines broad; stem 1 to 1.5 in. long, .5 to 1 line
thick.
Damp ground under willows and alders. Catskill mountains.
September.
The moist pileus resembles in color that of the small glabrous
striatulate form of Clitocyhe laccata, the dry one that of Galera
tener. The specimens were found growing with Naucoria palu-
dosa, from which they may be distinguished by the more cam-
panulate pileus, the broader and more distant lamellas and the
larger spores.
Bryogenj^. Pileus membranaceous, campanulate, striate,
glabrous, hygraphanous, even when dry, opake, slightly silky
stem thin, lax, flexile; lamellae broadly and plainly adnate,
broad, subdenticulate. Slender, growing among mosses, the
veil very fugacious.
Galera aquatilis M:
Aquatic Galera.
CHym. Europ., p. 270. Sylloge Vol. v, p. 869.)
Pileus membranaceous, campanulate or convex, glabrous,
watery, hygrophanous, pallid-honey color and striatulate on the
margin when moist, soft and whitish when dry, often with a
yellowish papilla; lamellae distant, triquetrous, plane, adnate,
pallid ; stem very long, slender, even, glabrous, whitish or yel-
lowish ; spores elliptical, .0004 in. long, .00024 broad.
Pileus 5 to 6 lines broad ; stem (in our specimens) 2 to 3 in.
long, scarcely 1 line thick.
Among mosses in wet places. Catskill mountains. July. A
rare species. In our specimens the stem is less elongated than
in the European plant.
Galera Sphagnorum Pers.
Sphagnum Galeea.
(Hym. Europ., p. 270. Sylloge Vol. v . p. 869.)
Pileus thin, conical convex or expanded, sometimes with a
small umbo or papilla, hygrophanous, tawny or subochraceous
and usually striatulate on the margin when moist, pale-ochraceous
or buff when dry; lamellae thin, subdistant, tawny-ochraceous
