T. FETCH, B.A., B.Sc. 



nnHE following list comprises the Gasteromycetse kno\\ai 

 -^ to occur in Ceylon, and includes species recently 

 collected, in addition to those recorded by Berkeley and 

 Broome. Papers on the Phalloids have previously been 

 published in the Annals of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Pera- 

 deniya. Vol. IV., pp. 139-184, and V., pp. 1-21 ; and a 

 further description of Lysurus Gardneri, under the new name 

 of Pharus Gardneri, will shortly appear in the Transactions of 

 the British Mycological Society. 



I am indebted to Mr. C. G. Lloyd for the determination of 

 very many of the species, and for liberal assistance in private 

 correspondence, as well as in his valuable publications.
