Rev. M. J. Berkeley and Mr. C. E. Broome on British Fungi. 55 
This agrees in some respects with C. carbonarius,Alb. & Schw., 
which is said to be a variety of C. umbonatus, and must therefore 
be very different from the present species. C. anthracophilus, 
Léy., appears more nearly allied, but has a very different habit. 
1135. C. crispus, Fr. Ep. p. 369. 
On branches of beech. Jedburgh, A. Jerdon, Esq. 
This very pretty species has occurred two years running. 
The colour of the pileus varies from a yellowish brown to white. 
*Marasmius Stephensii, Bk. & Br., Ann. of Nat. Hist. ser. 2. 
vol. xii. p. 403. This is probably synonymous with Marasmius 
terginus, Fr. 
1136. M. caulicinalis, Fr. Ep. p. 383. 
On the ground, amongst leaves, in a fir-wood. Ascot, Nov. 
22, 1865. 
Pileus smooth, white tinged with ochre, at length sulcato- 
striate; gills adnato-decurrent, connected by veins. 
Our plant seems paler in colour than that of Fries, but agrees 
in essential characters. 
*Strobilomyces strobilaceus, Berk. Outl. p. 236. 
A specimen of this rare fungus was sent from Ludlow by the 
Rev. A. Bloxam. 
1137. Polyporus (Anodermei) cuticularis, Fr. Ep. p. 458. 
On trunks of trees. Burnham Beeches, C. E. Broome. 
The hairs are curiously, trifid at the apex; the spores yellow, 
as in P. hispidus. 
1138. P. (Placodermei) fulvus, Fr. Ep. p. 466. 
On decayed trunks of trees. Batheaston, C. E. Broome. 
The specimen appears to have been gathered on a dead plum, 
and exactly accords with one on poplar, from Fries, in the resu- 
pinate state. It occurs on various trees, and is very distinct 
from P. igniarius. 
1139. P. (Inodermel) Airsutus, Fr. Ep. p. 477. 
On dead trunks. Orton Wood, near Twycross, Rev. A. 
Bloxam. 
Certainly a very rare species in England, though one of the 
most common in warmer countries. The larger pores at once 
stinguish it from P. versicolor, zonatus, and velutinus. 
* Craterellus cornucoproides, Fr. Ep. p. 582. 
As some doubt has been raised with respect to the specific 
difference of Cantharellus cinereus, it may be well to state that 
both were gathered at Burnham Beeches last autumn, and that 
the spores of the former are ‘0006 inch long by ‘00035, those 
of the latter ‘0004 long by ‘00015. In the former, moreover, 
the sporophores are forked above, and the spicules long and 
often less than four in number; in the latter the sporophores 
are obtuse and the spicules four.
