144 ENUMERATION OF FUNGI. 
Junghuhn's fungi, then, 3=-th are Coniomycetes ; 9—4,th 
are Hyphomycetes ; 7=,,th Gasteromycetes; (18—ith. Pyre- 
nomycetes; 10—=,th Discomycetes; and 66, or above bare `

Hymenomycetes. In Mr. Cuming's collection, there arem — 
species of the 1st, 2nd, and 4th families; of the remaining- 
families, 1— sth belongs to Gasteromycetes ; 5—4th are Py- 
renomycetes ; and 29, or more than 3ths, are Hymenomycetes, 
and an addition of, perhaps, three large species, will increase 
the proportion. 
It will be observed, that the proportion of Pyrenomycetes 
is as nearly as possible, the same; and there is even a greater 
preponderance of Hymenomycetes in the Phillippines. Of 
the Hymenomycetes in J ava, 40 are Polypori; in the Phillip- 
pines 16, being in the proportion of 1,160 1,056; and of the 
Java Polypori, 19 belong to the division (Apus, Annui), 
while in Cuming’s collection, estimating the species in the 
Same way as in Junghuhn’s list, 9 out of 16 belong to the 
same division, making a proportion of 304 to 360. 
The general result, therefore, agrees remarkably in the 
two cases, though the species are different. ‘There is the 
same marked predominance of Hymenomycetes, and amongst 
these of the genus Polyporus, and in this genus of the stem- 
less annual species. It would be very gratifying to have an 
opportunity of making a thorough comparison, but the result 
of the present necessarily imperfect sketch is, perhaps, not 
without interest. 
1. Agaricus (Psalliota) Philippinensis (n. sp.) ; pileo com 
vexo membranaceo croceo verrucoso-squamoso sericeoque, 
margine appendiculato; lamellis fusco-purpureis; stipite 
quali gracili croceo-tomentoso. Cum. n. 1981. 
On the ground, ! 
Pileus l inch broad. Stem 11 inch high, -th of an inch 
thick.  Sporidia elliptic, brown-purple.—The above charac- 
ters, taken from a single dried specimen, are necessarily im- 
perfect, but the species is certainly undescribed. It is nearest 
perhaps, to Ag. echinatus (Roth), having the habit of ? 
Lepiota.
