DOUBTFUL AND EXCLUDED SPECIES 
Agaricus flocculentus? Fries, Nova Acta Soc. Sci. Upsal. III. 1: 24. 1851. Collected 
and figured by Oersted in Costa Rica. There can be little doubt that this is referable to 
Galerula tenera or G. crispa. The species referred to in Epicr. Myc. 209 is Galera frustulenta, 
now placed in Psathyra. 
Galera antipoda (Lasch) Quél. Champ. Jura Vosg. 104. 1872. (Agaricus antipus Lasch, 
Linnaea 3:415. 1828.) Reported from Michigan by Kauffman, as occurring there on manure 
heaps. It is recognized by its radicate stipe. 
Galera aquatilis (Fries) P. Karst. Bidr. Finl. Nat. Folk 32: 442. 1879. (Agaricus hyp- 
norum aquatilis Fries, Syst. Myc. 1: 267. 1821. Agaricus aquatilis Fries, Epicr. Myc. 208. 
1838.) Reported from the Catskill Mountains, New York, by Peck, but these specimens 
appear to be a form of Galerula Hypni.
