THE present list of Fungi from Queensland and other parts of Australia is supple- 
mentary to that given in Series 2, vol. ii. of the * Linnean Transactions,’ pp. 53-73, March 
1883. They were collected by F. M. Bailey, Miss F. Campbell, of Melbourne, Mr. Tryon, 
Mr. Mitkin, of the Johnston River, Mr. Thomas Wright, and others. It begins with 
No. 274 (continued from the former list) and extends to No. 360. We are compelled 
to omit several specimens of the 4garicini, owing to the absence of notes and coloured 
figures, without which it is impossible to determine species belonging to that Order with 
any degree of certainty. A number of leaf-fungi have also been sent to us; some of these 
are merely the work of gall-insects, others are resinous exudations, and of the rest many 
are immature or otherwise imperfect ; among these contributions several of considerable 
interest occur, as Mesophellia arenaria, Berk., which is found dug up (apparently for 
food) by the Bandicoots, and left scattered about on the surface of the ground ; Podaron 
carcinomalis, Fr., found on ant-hills ; and two species of hypogzeous fungi. There is little 
doubt that a great deal remains to be done among these Orders in so vast a country as 
Australia, and we may look for great results from those engaged in their investigation; 
especially we have great hopes from our new correspondent Miss F. Campbell, of 
Melbourne, for as we get further south we may expect to meet with those fungi which 
require a moister and cooler climate than that of Queensland, and of this we have 
evidence in the hypogzeous species alluded to above, one of which is a form common in 
South Europe. 
274. AGARICUS (§ AMANITA) OVOIDEUS, Fr. 
Differing from A. virosus in being edible (Miss F. Campbell, no. 165). 
275. AGARICUS ($ LEPIOTA) BREKLERI, Berk., Fungi of Australia, Linn. Journ. xiii. 
р. 156. | 
276. Acartous ($ СотлхвтА) клртслтпв, Relhan. (Miss F. Campbell, nos. 173 and 181.) 
277. AGARICUS ($ FLAmMULA) втмхороргов, Bull. (Miss Р. Campbell, no. 163.) 
273. AGARICUS ($ PLEUROTUS) LIGNATILIS, Pers. 
It is impossible to determine Agarici with certainty without full notes and figures, 
but the specimen agrees very closely with the above (Miss Е. Campbell, no. 85). 
279. AGARICUS ($ OREPIDOTUS) rNTERCEPTUS, Berk., in Flora of Tasmania, ii. p. 246. : 
Agaricus ($ Crepidotus) mollis, Scheff., comes very near the specimen, but Miss 
Campbell describes it as * white," which would not be the case in that species if her 
plant were mature; it is therefore safer to refer it to A. interceptus, Berk., with the figure
