Agaricus campigenus Berk. 1855

Description

Agaricus (Psalliota) campigenus, Berk.; minor, pileo campanulato subcarnoso squamuloso, stipite gracili, annulo latiusculo superiore deorsum incrassato, lamellis angustis postice attenuatis subadnatis. HAB . On the ground, amongst grass, Colenso. Pileus about 1 inch high, campanulate, very obtuse, silky, with a few scattered scales, assuming a reddish hue when dry, rather fleshy. Stem 1.5 inch high, about 2 lines thick, incrassated at the base, slightly furfuraceous, with a broadish ring near the top. Gills rather narrow, attenuated behind, adnexed or slightly adnate. Spores pale red-brown, obliquely obovate. This has much the habit of a Lepiota, but the gills are adnexed and the spores pale, but decidedly coloured. It has not, I believe, been ascertained whether the spores of Leucospori ever change their colour when dry. In such species as A. cretaceus they are never dark; It is however certain that in A. fumoso-purpureus, Lasch., they are sometimes colourless, but possibly from being effete; and I have lately received from Dr Badham A. cretaceus with spores decidedly white, though the gills are as pink as in any dark-spored specimens.

Agaricus exstructus Berk. 1855

Description

Agaricus (Lepiota) exstructus, Berk.; pileo campanulato tessellato verrucoso, epidermide laevi dehiscente apices verrucarum investiente, stipite subaequali sursum annulato, lamellis angustis remotissimis.

Description

HAB . On the ground, Bay of Islands, J.D.H. Pileus campanulate, carnose, 1 inch or more high, nearly 2 inches across, regularly broken up into strong warts, each of which is clothed at its apex with an angular portion of the smooth cuticle. Stem nearly equal, about 3 inches high, 1/4 of an inch thick, not penetrating the substance of the pileus; ring superior. Gills narrow, extremely remote. A very beautiful species, of which a single specimen only has been gathered.

Lepiota exstructa (Berk.) Sacc. 1887

Notes

Fig. 9 Despite the poor state of the material (SINCLAIR, Auckland 26.IV.1854) microscopical characters and collection notes justify placing this species in Macrolepiota. The spores are typical of this genus: thick-walled, slightly dextrinoid, with distinct germ-pore, 13-16 X 9-10.5 µ. We suppose that this species was accidentally introduced into New Zealand.

Agaricus campigenus Berk. 1855

Description

Pileus campanulate, rather fleshy, very obtuse, silky, with a few scattered scales, assuming a reddish hue when dry, about 2.5 cm. high; gills rather narrow, narrowed behind, adnexed or slightly adnate ; spores pale red-brown, obliquely obovate; stem 4 cm. high, about 4 mm. thick, incrassated at the base, slightly furfuraceous, with a broadish ring near the top.

Distribution

New Zealand.

Habitat

On the ground, among grass.

Notes

This has much the habit of a Lepiota, but the gills are adnexed and the spores pale but decidedly coloured (Berk.).

The type specimens are destroyed by insects, hence nothing can be added to the above information. If the gills are adnexed the plant cannot belong to Agaricus (the old Psalliota).

Lepiota exstructa (Berk.) Sacc. 1887

Description

Pileus rather fleshy, campanulate, then expanding, white, surface broken up into warts or concentrically arranged, more or less overlapping, thick scales, white, 2.5-3.5 cm. high,4-6 cm. broad when expanded ; gills very distant from the stem, rather crowded and narrow, white with a tinge of pink; spores hyaline, broadly elliptical, ends very obtuse, smooth, 14-15 x .10 µ; stem 7-10 cm. high, slightly 'thickened at the base, pallid, ring ample, superior.

Distribution

Bay of Islands, Auckland, New Zealand.

Habitat

In meadows, &c.

Notes

A very beautiful endemic species. Examination of Berkeley's type specimen, supplemented by others accompanied by notes and sketches, has enabled me to complete the description. Belongs to the procerus group, and is in all probability edible.
