217 





inches in length. Most nearly allied to the resupinate form of 

 Hexagonia sericea. Fries, from which the present species differs 

 in the dull orange colour of the hymenium, and the larger and 

 more regular pores. 



Daedalea Gollanii, Massee. 



Pilei orbiculari-dimidiati, coriaceo-rigidi, postice adnato-decur- 

 rentes, densissime aggregato-imbricati, 1*5-2 cm. diam. transv. 

 et ant.-post., superne concentrice 3-5-zonati, glabri, ochraceo- 

 carneoli, margine tenui, striatal]. Hymenium e poroso lamel- 

 losum, lamellulis lacerato-dentatis ; postice 5-6 mm. longis, 

 ochraceis. Sporae nondum obviae. 



India, N.W.P. Mussoorie ; on dead wood, Chajuri Garden, 

 r>,600 feet, Gollan, 3. 



A distinct and interesting species allied to D. unicolor, Fries. 

 The numerous closely imbricated pilei form a mass about nine 

 inches long by five inches broad. Very rigid when dry. 



Lycoperdaceae, 



Lycoperdon lignicolum, Massee. 



I Peridia pusilla, sessilia, globulosa, furfuracea, pallida vel 



straminea, 3-4 mm. lata, subiculo albido effuso enata. Oleha 

 gossypina ochraeeo-albescens, floccis gracilibus hyalinis, levibus. 

 Sporae globosae, hyalinae, scabrae, 3*5-4 p diam. 



SELANGOR. Kuala Lumpur ; on dead bark, Ridley, 166. 



The minute peridia are gregarious on a compact, broadly 

 effused, whitish stroma, in which respect the plant differs widely 

 from all previously described species. Geaster subiculosus, Cooke 

 and Massee, resembles the present species in habit and appearance, 

 and might even be mistaken for it before the rupture of the 

 peridium. 



EXOBASIDIACEAE. 



Exobasidium Fawcettii, Massee. 



... * 



Foliicolum; folia infecta hypertrophica, crassiora, tortuosa, 

 atque saepius bulbosa, violaceo-rubra vel rosea, demum albo- 

 farinulosa. Basidia cylindracea, apic e obtuse rotundata, 3-4 

 sterigmatophora, 55-60 x 7-8 p. Sporae fusoideae vel sigmoideae, 

 hyahnae, continuae, 15-16 x 4-4*5 /*. 



West Indies. Jamaica; on living leaves of Lyonia jamaicensis. 

 \). Don, W. Faivcett. 



Allied to Exobasidium rhododendri, Cramer, but readily dis- 

 tinguished by the much larger spindle-shaped spores. 



TJredinaceae. 



Uredo satyrii, Massee. Maculae nullae vel vix manifestae. 

 Acer villi epiphylli, rarius amphigeni, numerosissimi, gregarii, 

 sordide pallideque ferruginei, epidermide diu velata. Sporae 

 globosae vel ovatae, episporio pro ratione tenui undique dense 

 minuteque verruculoso, subhyalinae, 24-27 p, vel 25-30 x 16-18 ^
