 374 ANNALS OF THE MISSOURI BOTANICAL GARDEN 



either singly or in clusters of from two to twenty individuals 

 more or less connected together at the base. The differences in 

 habit between the extremes of highly fascicled forms and those 

 with fructifications gregarious and largely single, impress one 

 as of specific weight at first and I should like to recognize these 

 extremes as two species but they intergrade too completely. 

 The dated collections which I have seen, indicate that the speci- 

 mens become highly fasciculate in autumn and winter. 



I do not understand why Berkeley attempted authorship for 

 this species. The C. fasciculata B. & C. is certainly that of 

 Schweinitz both in description and in fascicled form of types; 

 and as for C. fulva B. & Rav., it is noted in the original descrip- 

 tion that it is the same as Cantharellus fasciculatus Schw.
