" If it
has, and was found growing in the summer, he may feel quite safe in
classifying it as Armillaria. Sometimes the same genus will be found in
more than one column. This ought not to mislead or confuse the beginner.
In Table I., column headed "Volva," Amanita is mentioned, and also in
the column headed "Ring," but this indicates that an Amanita has both
the Volva (the universal veil) and the Ring. So in the columns headed by
"Stem," Pleurotus is represented as having a lateral or eccentric stem,
and also as having no stem. The meaning is, that some species of the
genus have no stem, while there are others in which the stem is lateral
or eccentric.
