A] It has a bright crimson pileus studded with pale whitish (sometimes yellowish) warts, and a stem and gills of ivory whiteness.
The pileus or cap bears on its under surface radiating plates or gills, consisting of the hymenium, over which are thickly scattered the basidia, each surmounted by four spicules, and on each spicule a spore.
It is by no means uncommon in Northern Europe or America, frequently growing in large rings; the pileus is pallid, and the stem stained with lilac.
The pileus is fleshy in the centre, and the gills thick and decurrent.
The other half of the pileus may be placed, gills downward, on a piece of black paper, and allowed to rest there during the night.
By this means it will be seen that the pileus is continuous with the stem, that the substance of the pileus descends into the gills, and that relatively the substance of the stem is more fibrous than that of the pileus.
The Agaric, or other similar fungus, is cut perpendicularly from the pileus downwards through the stem.
When, therefore, the mushroom has arrived almost at maturity, the pileus expands, and in this act the veil is torn away from the margin of the cap, and remains for a time like a collar around the stem.

These ribs are very irregular, and anastomose with each other throughout; the pileus hollow, opening into the irregular stem.
But the involute edges of the pileus are bearded with close hairs.
A few more hours and the even head of the pileus has split in a dozen places, the sections curl back, melt out of all form into an inky fluid, and on the morrow's dawn a black stain on the ground will be all that remains.

The pileus in this species is sometimes spotted with white.
A shade of yellow sometimes appears beneath the brown of the pileus, and as the plants grow old the pileus becomes blackish, glabrous and shining.
The pileus is sometimes irregular and even eccentric, the thin margin may be slightly striate, is often split and in wet weather may be upturned or revolute.
The pileus also is not shining and the taste is tardily somewhat acrid.
We propose in this work also to enumerate the mushrooms according to the color of the pileus or cap, and give a list, with a description of each, after this arrangement.
Pileus moist; at first smooth or sprinkled with superficial whitish fibres of the veil.
We found quite a small specimen, the pileusnot more than 1½ inch broad, but it may measure 3 inches.
They are placed under the pileusjust as the gills are situated, and contain the spores.
In Europe the pileus or cap is said to vary in color, being sometimes white, pale yellow, red or even copper color, although it is usually orange-yellow.
The claims of a patent are the statutory indices of that which the applicant believes to be new, they define an invention that has been searched by the Patent Office and no anticipation discovered for it.
The divisions found suitable for book classification for library use, have not been deemed adequate to the exactness and refinement essential to a patent office classification of the useful arts.
Fortunately most people carry on their mental processes in accordance with certain uniformities.
Any attempt to calculate the number of cross-references to be supplied if all disclosures of the subjects of invention were to be cross-referenced would show the number to be incalculable.
Hence the functional basis is preferred in all cases in which it can be applied.
In an indented schedule all subclasses in the first column reading from the left are species to the genus represented by the class title.
Classification lies at the foundation of the mental processes.
As the specification of the counter application mentions cigarette, pill, and cartridge-making machines to which the counter may be attached, the examiner in charge of registers may search those classes.
The pileusnow being exposed, the fungus presents a deep orange-red or salmon color to the beholder, its sulphurous-hued pore surface being turned beneath.
Pileus smooth and polished, usually rich crimson or maroon, sometimes varied with paler yellowish tints.
Average diameter of extended pileus of each of these species about three and one-half inches; veil absent in each.
The pileus of this species frequently assumes eccentric shapes, or is often cracked, as seen in the accompanying cut.
The shorter gills, instead of rounding off as they approach the pileus (see a), terminate abruptly almost at right angles to their edge.
In size it varies from two to three and a half inches across the pileus or cap, which is either smooth or slightly rough, scaly, or scurfy, and creamy white or tawny in color, according to age or variety.
Diameter of cylindrical pileusin average specimens, two inches.
In each plate dimension marks are shown which indicate the expansion of the pileus or cap of the fungus in an ideal specimen.
The pileus of the dried specimen is often more or less frosted with minute white crystals--binoxalate of potash--and the spore surface dulls to the color of buckskin.
The pileus is moist, not viscid, smooth or sprinkled with a whitish superficial fibril, flesh changing color when dry, and rather thin.

The pileus is of a darker color, dark brown or smoky in color.
When it grows on the side of the log it is attached laterally, or on the upper side of one margin, while the greater portion of the pileus is free and shelving.
The pileus is more or less irregular, the stem being generally eccentric, so that the pileus is produced more on one side than on the other, sometimes entirely lateral at the end of the stem.
This peculiarity of the veil in clinging to the margin of the pileus has led Hennings to place the plant in Karsten's genus (Engler and Prantl, Pflanzenfamilien) Chalymotta, as Chalymotta retirugis.
In the small species of Mycena where the gills are slightly decurrent, the pileus is not umbilicate as it is in corresponding species of Omphalia.
There does not seem to be a well formed annulus, the veil only being present in a rather young stage, as the inrolled margin of the pileus is unrolling from the surface of the stem.
However, as the pileus expands more, these are separated into smaller areas and their connection with the surface of the pileusbecomes less firm.
The plant is quite readily distinguished by the form of the pileuswith the ascending gills and the tumid annulus.
