The genus Mcliolaster described from South Africa 

 (Trans. Roy. Soc. South Africa) was previously described 

 by Theissen [(Ann. Myc. 11. (1913). 499 & 15. (1917). 

 421.)] as Amazonia; the name Meliolaster must there- 

 fore be dropped. There can be little doubt that the 

 South African species described as Meliolaster Mac 

 kenzii is identical with Amazonia astcrinoidcs. (Wint.)
