It grows in woods and meadows.
False Chantarelle. [Fig. 19.]
(Cantharellus aurantiacus.)540.
Is known by its smaller size, its gills being far thinner and more crowded than in the true chantarelle; the stem frequently deep umber at the base, and the gills or veins darker than the top.
It is a species to be rejected for culinary purposes.
Yellow Milk-Mushroom. [Fig. 20.]
(Lactarius theiogalus.)503.
This is a beautiful plant, with an odour that is far from disagreeable. It is sometimes without the zones on the top which are shown in our figure, but it is immediately known by the change of colour which takes place in the milk on breaking the fungus; this is at first pure white, but in less than a minute the milk turns to a brilliant yellow.
