Massachusetts. 



Early collections were made in Massachusetts by Sprague, by 

 Hitchcock and by C. L. Andrews, who published a brief account 

 of some fungi collected by him in 1856. Later extensive collec- 

 tions have been made by Professors Farlow and Thaxter, A. B. 

 Seymour, and various instructors and students in botany in 

 Harvard University, by Miss Cora Clarke and others. The flora 

 of the eastern part of the state ought to be well known but com- 

 paratively little recent local literature has appeared. The greater 

 part of these collections are naturally at Harvard, but not a few of 

 the duplicates have found their way to the Ellis collection. 

 Many of the fungi of the list published by Tuckerman & Frost 

 belong to the Vermont portion of the territory covered, where 

 Frost did the most of his work. Besides the following, numerous 

 papers on economic species have appeared from the Agricultural 

 Experiment Station at Amherst :
