AGARICUS applicatus. Batsch. tab. 24. Fig. 125.
AGARICUS With. v, 4. 305.
Most common under chips of rotten wood, or on the loosened bark of decaying stumps. It is generally-attached by the pileus, and lamellas, though sometimes protruded by a stalk which curiously elongates the top of the pileus, and makes the whole fungus assume the shape of a bell. The pileus is somewhat hairy, and commonly of a greenish gray colour; the lamellæ are of a lighter hue.

AGARICUS stosus.
About the year 1793, I found this Agaric in great abundance in Sir W. Jerningham's plantations at Costesy near Norwich, growing on the fallen leaves of young Beech., Fagus sylvatica; but I have never seen it since. The hairy stipes is its most remarkable character.
TAB. CCCIII.
AGARICUS acetabulosus.
Found near Mill-bank, Westminster, a little above highwater mark, in May 1795. This is very like a poor specimen of Agaricus congregatus, E. Fungi, tab. 261. but the pileus is more plaited. The lamellæ are remarkably glandular on their sides; and instead of a bare base or foot it stands in a little socket-like volva.

AGARICUS gerogii. Linn. With. v. 4. 226.
This plant differs very little from the common Mushroom, of which it is perhaps only a variety, and often not to be distinguished from it; however, adepts and epicures will never substitute the one for the other. This always partakes of the same form as the Mush-
