This was found in Peckham (or Oak of honour) wood Oct. 9 and 16, 1794, tolerably plentiful. When young it is enveloped in a veil of gluten, which is durable on the dried specimen, and has a beautiful transparent appearance like isinglass. The gulls are of a rusty iron colour, rounded at their base, and detached from the stalk, though partly connected by cobweb-like threads inclining downwards. Similar threads arise upwards from the ennulus, meeting the former. The stalk is nearly solid, but rather pithy.
