feet, and a very similar species has been gathered in Nova 

 Zembla. 



670. A. (Clitocybe) cerussatus, Fr. Ep. p. 61. Fir woods. 

 Norths. Abundant, forming very large rings. Sometimes pro- 

 ducing a merulioid hymenium on the top of the pileus. 



671. A. (Collybia) atratus, Fr. Ep. p. 98. On charred ground 

 in woods. Rockingham Forest, Norths. 



We have been enabled to determine this from copies of the 

 drawings of Hymenomycetous Fungi in the Museum at Stock- 

 holm, kindly transmitted by M. Fries. 



672. ^. (Mycena) croc«/w5, Schrad. Amongst leaves in woods. 

 This beautiful species is figured in the last edition of the 



' Journal of a Naturalist,' under the name of " the Stainer/' as 

 found in Gloucestershire. 



*^. (Pleurotus) fimbriatus, Bolt. East Bergholt, Jan. 3, 1852, 

 Rev. Dr. Badham. On dead wood. Most beautifully and 

 repeatedly lobed and fimbriated. 



673. A. (Pleurotus) acerosus, Fr. Ep. p. 135. On decayed 

 wood, on soil, gravel, &c. Hitcham, Suffolk, Dec. 1849, Prof. 

 Henslow. 



674. A. (Pleurotus) atrocaruleus, Fr. Ep. p. 137. On dead 

 wood. Penzance, J. Ralfs, Esq. 



675. A. (Volvaria) Taylori, n. s. Pileo conico-campanulato 

 obtuso livido ex apice striato-rimoso tenui; stipite solidopallido; 

 volva spadicea lobata sublaxa, lamellis antice latis postice valde 

 attenuatis roseis. On the ground, Jersey, Mr. M. A. Taylor. 

 Pileus If inch high and broad, beautifully pencilled and cracked ; 

 margin lobed and sinuated ; stem 2- inches high, ^ inch thick, 

 slightly bulbous at the base. Gills uneven. 



This beautiful species is described from an excellent drawing 

 by Mr. M. A. Taylor, and is clearly quite different from every 

 other species; the dark volva, campanulate pileus and uneven 

 attenuated gills are marked characters. The habit is rather that 

 of some Entoloma than of its more immediate allies. 



676. A, (Pluteus) nanus, P. Syn. p. 357. On fallen sticks,- 

 Wothorpe, Norths., Aug. 23, 1853. The yellow- stemmed variety. 

 Spores subglobose, even, '0002 inch long. 



^A. (Pluteus) phlebophorus, Ditm. in Sturm's Deutschlands 

 Fl. i. t. 15. On dead sticks, Wothorpe, Aug. 23, 1853. 



The plant of Greville is certainly not the true species of 

 Ditmar, which has occurred as above, exactly according with the 

 figure in the ' Deutschlands Flora.' The pits of the pileus are 

 very deep and the reticulations very distinct ; in one plant the 

 stem is slightly flocculose. Spores subglobose, '0003 inch long. 



^A, (Entoloma) repandus, Bull. t. 423. f. 2. This species is 

 placed by Fries in Hebdomad but the plant of BuUiard has
