than the usual form, but exactly agreeing with Bull. tab. 570. 2.

Brittle, inodorous. Stem hollow; pileus squamulose ; colour of the 
pileus and stem brilliant orange-red. Gills adnate, decurrent. There 
is no figure, and the colour of the gills is not noted. 
387. H. Pomona, n.s.; pileo hemisphærico subfloccoso fulvo flavoque 
variegato ; stipite ineurvo fistuloso; lamellis pallidis decurrentibus acie 
undulata. Hook, fil., Ser, 3, No. 10. 
Has. On clay banks. Moflong, Khassya. July 1, 1850. 
Inodorous, brittle. Pileus 14 inch across, hemispherical, sometimes 
slightly umbonate, dry, fleshy, tawny, shaded here and there with yel- 
low, obscurely floccose, surface glistening ; flesh yellow; margin even. 
Stem ineurved, 1-13 inch high, tawny or yellow, truly fistulose. Gills 
flesh-coloured or pale yellow, truly decurrent, thick, fleshy, brittle. 
A pretty species, allied to H. fulvus. Like many other species from 
Khassya, growing on clay-banks, the stem is more or less horizontal. 
388. H. fulous, n. s.; pileo campanulato obtuso subcarnoso læte 
fulvo pulverulenti-squamoso, margine striato; stipite tenui æquali con- 
eolore; lamellis luteis adnatis postice attenuatis. Hook. fiL, Ser. 2, 
No. 23. 
Has. In pine-woods. Sikkim, 11,000 feet. 
_ Brittle. Pileus scarcely half an inch broad, campanulate, obtuse, 
not viscid, rather fleshy, bright tawny, sprinkled in the centre with 
little dust-like scales; margin striate. Stem 2 inches high, 14 line 
thick, nearly equal, smooth, tawny like the pileus, but paler and yel- 
lower below, fistulose. Gills broad, ventricose, yellow, adnate, atte- 
nuated behind. 
A pretty little species, with the habit of H. psittacinus.

Thinner and more delicate than European specimens, but exactly 
agreeing in the peculiar clothing of the pileus and stem.

It is curious that only one of the species of Lactarius, which are 
comparatively rare in the collection, seems to have been found in a 
milky state. This is probably owing to the very moist climate. “Lac
