355. GuiART, J. Considerations sur le mycetome, a propos d'un cas nouveau. [Considera- 

 tions upon mycetomes with reference to a new case.] Compt. Rend. Soc. Biol. Paris 83: 277- 

 278. 1920. — In a mycetome with white grains of the Aspergillus type a thin pigment layer 

 was found which leads the author to conclude that this is a step in the transition from the 

 white-grained to dark-grained type, and that accordingly the genera Indiella and Madurella 

 are the same fungus in respectively the white-grain and dark-grain stage of development of 

 the mycetome. — E. A. Bessey. 



356. HoRNE, Arthur S. Diagnoses of fungi from spotted apples. Jour. Botany 58: 

 238-242. 1920. — The new genus Polyopeus is described, and a synopsis of the 4 species included 

 is given. The genus is referred to the Hyphomycetes. The following new species and varie- 

 ties are given: Pleospora poviorum, Fuckelia botryoidea, Coniothyrium cydoniae Brun. var. 

 mail, C. convolutum, Alternaria po7mcola, and Sclerotium stellatum. — K. M. Wiegand. 



357. MuRRiLL, W. A. A new bolete from Porto Rico. Mycologia 13: 60-61. 1921. — 

 A species with pale, ellipsoidal spores is described as Gyroporvs Earlei sp.nov. — H. R. Rosen. 



358. MuRRiLL, W. A. Light-colored resupinate polypores — III. Mycologia 13: 83-100. 

 1921. — A continuation of studies previously reported (see Bot. Absts. 8, Entry 460). In this 

 paper rose-colored, lilac, red and purple species of Porta are described. Among the 26 

 species treated, the following are new: Fo)-m aZ6i?-osea, P.subundata, P . subincarnata (Peck), 

 P, Dodgei, P. Bracei, and P. subbadia. — H. R. Rosen. 



359. MuRRiLL, W. A. Two species of Fuscoporia. Mycologia 13: 119. 1921. — Two new 

 combinations are made based on dark-colored species previously included in Poria. They 

 are Fuscoporia tenerrima (Berk. & Rav.), and F.nebulosa (Berk. & Curt.). — H. R. Rosen. 



360. MuRRiLL, W. A. A double mushroom. Mycologia 13: 119-122. Fig. 1-3. 1921.— 

 A peculiar carpophore of Agaricus campestris is described in which there are 2 sets of gills as 

 well as 2 stems. An appearance is given such as would exist if the caps of 2 mushrooms occur- 

 ring side by side had entirely grown together and the stronger mushroom had lifted the other 

 into the air. Comparable abnormalities in other gill-fungi are noted. — H. R. Rosen. 



361. MuRRiLL, W. A. The genus Tinctoporia. Mycologia 13: 122-123. 1921.— Three 

 new combinations are made and the forms described. Tinctoporia aurantiotingens (Ellis 

 & Macbr.) Murrill becomes T. albocincta (Cooke & Masse) comb. nov. on the basis of prior- 

 ity; the other new combinations are T. graphica (Bres.) based on Poria graphica, and T. 

 Fuligo (Berk. & Br.), based on Polyporus {Poria) Fuligo. — H. R. Rosen.

 126-128. 1921. 



363. PuTTEMANS, A. Glocosporium Bombacis, n. sp. Bull. Soc. Path. Veg. France 

 7: 74-75. 1920. — The above fungus found on Bomax (Pachyra) insignis in the vicinity of 

 Sao Paulo, Brazil, is described and its effect upon the host indicated. Bordeaux mixture 

 is suggested as a control measure. — C. L. Shear.

365. Reinking, Otto A. Higher Basidiomycetes from the Philippines and their hosts II. 

 Philippine Jour. Sci. 16: 107-179. 1920. — Identification of the higher Basidiomycetes col- 

 lected on Mount Maquiling and in the vicinity of Los Baiios, Laguana Province, Luzon, in 

 Mindanao, and in Sulu, with special reference to the host plants. [See also the preceding 

 entry and the 2 following ones.] — Albert. R. Sweetser.
