66. C. typhoides Rost. is very common on rotten wood from 

 April throughout the summer. It has been noted on poplar, 

 alder and laurel. 



67. C. microspora G. Lister. The only record we have of this 

 uncommon species is due to Mr E. S. Salmon who found it on 

 dead leaves at Reigate in October 1897. 



68. C. pulchella Rost. Large regiments of this neat little 

 species are of frequent occurrence in summer on dead leaves 

 and twigs, notably those of yew and Tsuga canadensis. 



var. fusca Lister has only once been met with, on the naked 

 bark of a fallen pine branch in May. 



69. C. tenerrinia G. Lister is fairly common though less 

 conspicuous than the last species. It has occurred on rotting 

 grass in August, on old straw in September, on dead bramble 

 in November, and inside dead herbaceous stems. 



1 70. C. ruhens Lister. This is usually a winter species and by 

 no means common. The only Surrey record of it was on holly 

 and ivy leaves at Witley in October 1896. 



71. Enerthenema papillatum Bowman seems to have a pre- 

 ference for rotting oak wood but is not uncommon on pine, 

 white poplar, lime and even rhododendron. It has been found 

 in January and March and from July to September, and also 

 on living oak at Hindhead, five feet up the trunk. 



I72. Lamproderma scintillans Morg. is a hardy flourishing 

 little species not particular when or where it appears. It grows 

 in great profusion, from January to October, covering several 

 square yards and forming-up on anything that happens to be 

 in its path: leaves, wood, stones, brick, etc., and even on top 

 of other mycetozoa, e.g. Diderma difforme and D. squamulosum. 

 73. L. violaceum Rost. was seen emerging from a rotten 

 hollow stump of Lombardy poplar in January, March and 

 December. The delicate points of iridescent blue covering the 

 surrounding moss, ivy leaves and sticks produced a most 

 striking picture. 



■|'74. Amaurochaete fuliginosa Rost. was observed oozing out 

 of the parched and cracked fir and pine stumps on Oxshott 

 heath in September and October 1921, in spite of the severe 

 drought of that year. It was first recorded for the county at 

 Woking, among the pines on the Common, and has since been 

 obtained from Haslemere, Witley, Byfleet and Weybridge. 



75. Brefeldia maxima Rost. The plasmodium of this species 

 has been noticed in great creeping masses in April, May and 

 June, but it is more often on the move in October and 

 November, In no case have I met it on any but elm and poplar 

 stumps.
