The North American Species of Pholiota

(1913). We have studied his collection (2827) and find it to be
P. terrestris.
Pholiota togularis (Fr.) Kummer, Der Fuhrer in die Pilzkunde p. 85.
1871.
see Pholiotina togularis (Fr.) Fayod ex Singer.
Ploliota trachyspora C. 8c C. apud Overholts, Missouri Bot. Gard. Annals.
14: 125. 1927. This is a Rozites or a Cortinarius.
Pholiota tuberculosa (Fr.) Kummer, Der Fuhrer in die Pilzkunde p. 83.
1871.
Reported from Michigan by Harper (1913: 489). We have studied
Harper's collection from Michigan and conclude that it is P. flammans (the variant with a distinct gelatinous pellicle). It is clearly
not the same as material of P. tuberculosa from Great Britain identified by P. D. Orton.
Pholiota unicolor (Fr.) Gillet, Champ. Fr. Hymen. p. 436. 1878.
see Galerina iunicolor (Fr.) Singer.
Pholiota ventricosa Earle, Bull. N. Y. State Bot. Garden 2: 341. 1902.
A probable synonym of Gymnopilhs spectabilis see Singer (1963).
Pholiota vermiflua (Pk.) Saccardo, Syll. Fung. 5: 739. 1887.
see Agr-ocybe dura.
Pholiota villosa (Fr.) Saccardo, Syll. Fung. 5: 752. 1887.
Reported from the Pacific Coast. Overholts (1927) thought it was
Pholiota (Gymnopilus) spectabilis.
Pholiota viscida (Pk.) Kauffman, Amer. Journ. Bot. 13: 29. 1926.
see Galerina viscida (Pk.) Smitli & Singer, Monogr. on the Genus
Galerina Earle, p. 244. 1964.

APPENDIX
In the course of studying Gymnopilus Hesler has studied the types
of Flammula olivacea Pat., F. aureoviridis Pat. and F. vinicolor Pat. His
type studies are given below; New combinations are withheld pending
study of fresl material.
Flammula aureoviridis Pat.
Coll. by Duss, No. 816, on decayed wood, Camp Jacob, Guadeloupe,
Farlow Herb.
Spores 6-8.5 X (3.5) 4-4.5 /L, ellipsoid to subovoid, inequilateral in
profile, smooth, truncate (germ pore large), brownish in KOH, yellowish
brown in Melzer's reagent. Basidia unsuitable for study. Pleurocystidia
and cheilocystidia none found. Gill trama subparallel, hyphae 3-5 /,
broad; sublymenium not distinctive. Pileus trama radial. Cuticle of
brown, repent hyphae; no pileocystidia. Caulocystidia none. Clamp connections present.
This is a Pholiota (Kuehneromyces).
