ENUMERATION OF FUNGI. 145 
2. Lentinus (Scleroma) connatus (n. sp.); fasciculatus ; 
pileis lato-infundibuliformibus lobatis tenuibus glabris umbri- 
nis, lineis tenuissimis creberrime virgatis; lamellis confertis 
angustis equalibus integerrimis longe decurrentibus fulvis; 
stipitibus connatis velutinis spongiosisve spithameeis ligneo- 
pallidis. Cum. n. 1993. 
On very decayed wood. 
Forming fasciculate tufts, the lower ones smaller, and over- 
Shadowed by the larger.  Pileus 4 inches or more broad, 
23 inches deep, broadly infundibuliform, thin, variously lobed, 
of a beautiful umber, inclining to fawn-colour, smooth, 
marked all over with extremely delicate streaks, which are, 
however, visible to the naked eye. Gills narrow, very entire, 
equal, lineato-decurrent, not ending abruptly, more tawny 
than the pileus. Stems 54 inches high, } and 2 of an inch 
thick, slightly swollen above, connate, paler than the gills, 
clothed with velvety down, or spongy pubescence. 
Allied to Lentinus exilis, but distinguished by its long 
stem and mode of growth. It is a very splendid species. 
3. Panus adius (n. sp.); pileo infundibuliformi tenui 
lento-membranaceo creberrime sulcato badio, velutino-pulve- 
rulento, demum glabrescente; stipite duro attenuato trans- 
versim squamoso-tomentoso, lamellisque latis furcatis integer- 
rimis decurrentibus abrupte desinentibus ligneo-pallidis. Cum. 
n. 1983. 
On decayed wood. 
Pileus 31-41 inches broad, infundibuliform, thin, strongly 
and regularly sulcato-striate nearly from the centre; bay- 
brown, especially towards the margin, clothed with extremely 
short velvety pubescence, which, at length, nearly vanishes ; 
margin entire, very thin, expanded. Gills rather broad, 
Orked, even at the very margin, decurrent, but ending 
abruptly, of a pallid wood-colour, beset with short bristles, 
their edge quite entire and very acute; trama distinct, fibrous. 
Stem 1 inch or more long, 3-2 lines thick, more or less 
attenuated below, very hard, clothed at first with downy 
scales, sometimes black and wrinkled at the base.
