 Braendle, Washington, D. C. . for cuts Nos. 31 and 3-2. Others by the 

 same artist will be awaited with pleasure. The handsome Morel, cut No.

Fig. 31. Hy-pho-lo'-ma sub-Iater-i'-ti-um. Edible. The spores are purple brown 

 and there is no annuWus in this genus. Cut from photo by Fred T. Braendle, Wash- 

 ington, D. C. The specific name alludes to the color of the cap "which is nearly a 

 brick red, sometimes tawny. The margin is lighter in color. The plant grows on 

 old stumps or appears to come from the ground, being from buried portions of stumps 

 or roots. Plants represented one-half natural size.
