the two last; but differing in the characters of the pileus. The 

 pores are probably tinged with purple when fresh. A very 

 pretty species. The pileus when young is probably tomen- 

 tose as in the allied species. 

 New Orleans. Hook. Herb. 



48. P. (Apus. Ann. Cor.) occidentalism Kl. 1. c. Effused at 

 the base, thin, coriaceous, yellow-brown. Pileus zoned, reni- 

 form, villous, at length velvety. Hymenium even. Pores 

 nearly round, shallow. Nearly of the same tawny yellow 

 throughout. Pileus 4 — 6 inches broad, 2 — 3 inches long, 

 with zones of the same colour. Klotzsch describes the disse- 

 piments as very thick, which is the case in some specimens, 

 but when perfect they are thin and the pores middle-sized 

 and angular. The- same remark indeed is applicable here 

 as in Pol. hydnoides. Some specimens are perfectly resupinate 

 and have the pores arranged concentrically.

49. P. {Ap. Ann. Cor.) cupreus, Berk. Thin, coriaceous, 

 flexible. Pileus rounded, effused at the base, slightly lobed, 

 zoned, smooth, coppery-ferruginous. Substance ferruginous. 

 Hymenium ferruginous-cinnamon. Pores very minute, shal- 

 low ; margin barren. Pileus 2\ inches broad, 2 inches long, 

 very thin, of the same sort of glaucous coppery tint as the 

 hymenium of Thelepliora rubiginosa.

Mauritius, Mr. Telfair. Differing from the Juan Fernandez 

 plant in being a little less zoned. The substance of this is 

 rich brown, very different from that of Pol. spadiceus de- 

 scribed above. 



51. P. [Apus. Ann. Cor.) pruinatus, Kl. 1. c. Pileus effused 

 at the base, gilvo-fuscous, pruinose ; margin obsoletely zoned ; 

 pores extremely minute, round, fuliginous. Imbricated. Pi- 

 leus 1 inch long and broad, sometimes tuberculated. Pores 

 2 lines long. Substance thin, leathery.
