The mouceron, however, has a very thick and fleshy pileus; its gills are very narrow and numerous, and fixed to the stem, and the stem is thick and short. Dr. Withering has carefully distinguished several other species from this fairy-ring agaric, or Scotch bonnets, as it is called by Mr. Ray. ORD. IX. TRIBE I.
