Aqarlcm bulbosus viridis. To some of the species, no scientific name
is given (merely the popular one) ; and when the scientific names are
given, the name of the/oimder of the species is frequently omitted. It
is to be understood, therefore, that where we have omitted authors'
names, we have merely followed Dr. Valenti-Serini.
Tab. 4. Fig. 1. Amanita Vitoni. As this Agaric is shown with
broAvn gills, it is probably not an Amanita.
Tab. 4. Fig. 2. Amanita Terrea {p pseud- Amanita) has dark brown
gills, and therefore, if the colouring is correct, cannot be an Amanita.
Tab. 5. Fig. 1. Amanita ftilva. Fig. 2. Amanita cinerea =: iovms
of Agaricus pantherinus, DC.
Tab. 6 et 7. Agaidcus fulvaster and A. plumbeus. Probably forms
of A. Cecilics, Berk, and Br. Both these varieties are common in the
neighbourhood of London.
Tab. 8. Volvaria Corticelli. Volvaria here, like Amanita above, is
raised to the position of a genus ; the curious Agaric represented in
the plate has white gills, not pink, as might have been expected from
the name.
Tab. 9. Agaricus virgatm is an indifferent representation of A. vol-
vaceus, Bull., or the " Stov Agaric " as we call it in England, accord-
ing to Dr. Valenti-Serini.
Tab. 13. A. perlatus. The same species as shown on Tab. 6.
Tab. 14. A. margaritiferus=^A. pantherinus, DC.
Tab. 15. A. maculatus (!). Totally different from A. maculatus,
A. and S., and belonging to a different section of Agaricus. Probably
forms of the species shown on Tab. 6 and 13.
Tab. 16. A. verrucosus, V>\A\.-= A. pantherinus, DC.
Tab. 17. A. Hydnocephalus. A bad representation of ^. acutesquamosus,
Weinm.
Tab. 18. Fig. 2. A. ulmarius (?).—Fig. 5. A. rimosus, Bull. Per-
haps correct.
Tab. 19. A. lacrimabundus, Bull. Very poor and incoiTect repre-
sentation.
Tab. 20. Fig. 1. A. nanus (?).
Tab. 21. Fig. 1. A. Peronatus, Bolt. A grotesque caricature of
Marasmius peronatus, Fr.
Tab. 22. A. mutabilis, Scha^ff. May be this species, or A. melleus,
Vahl, but is not like either.
