* Phallus iosxnos. Berh. 



This plant occurred abundantly on the sand hills by the sea 

 shore at Scratby, near Yarmouth, in November, 1874, from whence 

 the Rev. Kirby Trimmer kindly sent us specimens ; after a very 

 careful examination we were unable to differentiate these speci- 

 mens from various forms of P. i7npuclicus we have met with either 

 by habit, colour, or odour ; one specimen only had a reddish tinge 

 upon the stem, several of the older ones were blackened by some 

 Cladosporium. Mr. Trimmer, however, says — " I have had the 

 opportunity of testifying to the appropriateness of the specific 

 name of ' iosmos,' though, in the midst of these specimens, I 

 found them by sight and not by scent. In getting them up from 

 the sand, they yielded a pleasant violet odour, and it was not until 

 the third day after gathering that they became offensive." Rev. 

 M. J. Berkeley, to whom specimens were sent, says, " doubtless 

 the plant of Curtis' Entomology, but it is very doubtful whether it 

 is a species."
