APPENDIX. 



A LIST OF SOME OF THE LARGER FUNGI FOUND IN THE BLUE RIVER VALLEY, 



BY MRS. E. C. JEWELL. 



In the hope of entering into communication with other students of Fun- 

 gology, I venture to send a brief preliminary report of such fungi as I have 

 been able to identify positively as growing in Kansas. 



My facilities for such work are limited to a good Wetzler microscope, and 

 a volume of Berkeley's Outlines of British Fungology, which gives no de- 

 scription of microscopic species — with such stray helps as magazine articles, 

 encyclopedias, agricultural reports, etc. I have seen only British works — 

 never even a catalogue of American plants. Of course I have recorded 

 much that I cannot report, for I know of no name for most of my finds. 

 The best naturalists themselves are readjusting their system, since the dis- 

 covery of the alternate generation of many of the lower orders makes it 

 certain that many plants have had several names apiece allotted to them in 

 the best lists — even Berkeley's. For this reason, I report only the larger 

 ones now. 



I would most gladly exchange observations and such tentative knowledge 

 as I possess with any other observer in the same field.
