forms, the one much larger than the other, but agreeing in 

 essential characters. 



9. Lentinus Lecomtei, Fr. Ep. p. 388 ; Salle, no. 3. On dead 

 wood. A single specimen only, but probably common, as in all 

 tropical countries. 



10. Lentinus tener, Klotzsch ; Fries, Ep. p. 389 ; Salle, no. 5, 

 27. On dead wood. 



11. Lentinus Schomburgkii, Berk, in Linn. Tr. vol. xx. p. 111. 

 tab. 9. fig. 2. Var. lamellis glanduloso-punctatis, Salle, no. 4. On 

 dead wood. 



I see no difi'erence between the British Guiana and St. Do- 

 mingo species, except the presence in the latter of spicules on 

 the gills which are rather more broadly serrate. 



12. Jjentinus eugrammus, Mont. Cuba, p. 414 ; Salle, no. 26. 

 On dead wood. A single resupinate specimen. 



13. Panus connatus, n. s. Csespitoso-connatus : pileo piano 

 demum depresso glabro lamellisque latiusculis integris decurren- 

 tibus pallidis ; stipite tomentoso. Salle, no. 8. On dead wood. 



Pileus 2 inches or more across, smooth, at first plane or rather 

 convex, then more or less depressed. Stems 1-2 inches high, 

 \-^ an inch thick, more or less downy, striate, from the descend- 

 ing decurrent gills, which are rather broad and quite entire. 



This species is allied to P. conchatus, but the stem is well de- 

 veloped and never obsolete. In very young individuals the pileus 

 is convex with decidedly decurrent gills. In age the stem some- 

 times becomes lateral. 



14. Panus concavus, n. s. Eximie csespitosus : pileo infundi- 

 buliformi glabro ; stipitibus centralibus glabris basi connatis ; 

 lamellis integvis decurrentibus angustis ; postice vix anastomo- 

 santibus. Salle, no, 9. On wood. 



Much tufted; pileus 1-1 ^^ inch across, smooth, infundibu- 

 liform; margin arched. Stems 1^-2 inches or more high, about 

 1|^ line thick, tufted, connate at the base, slightly attenuated up- 

 wards. Gills narrow, very decurrent, entire, scarcely at all ana- 

 stomosing below. 



This has very much the appearance of Lentinus caspitosus, 

 now referred by Fries, in his ' Novse Symbolse Mycologicse ^ just 

 published, to the genus Panus, but differing in its infundibuliform 

 pileus. In the larger specimen the gills end in mere striae on 

 the stem. 



1 5. Schizophyllum commune, Fr. Ep. p. 403 ; Salle, no. 16. On 

 wood. Extremely abundant, as in all tropical countries. 



16. Lenzites repanda, Fr. Ep. p. 404; Salle, no. 19. On dead 

 wood. Small discoloured specimens. 



17. Lenzites striata, Fr. Ep. p. 406 ; Salle, no. 18. On charred 

 wood.
