SPECIES IMPERFECTLY KNOWN 
Thelephora aculeata Berk. & Curtis, Grevillea 1: 149. 1873; 
Sacc. Syll. Fung. 6: 523. 1888. 
The type was collected on the ground in Santee Swamp, South 
Carolina, in June. I had compared with the type a collection 
made by Professor P. H. Rolfs, on the ground, Clemson Col- 
lege, South Carolina, on June 18, and found this collection so 
similar to the type in aspect, although smaller, that I referred 
this specimen to Thelephora aculeata. I had not been able to 
demonstrate basidia for the type nor for the Rolfs specimen; 
now while working out the detailed structure of the latter speci - 
men for publication, I find globose, longitudinally septate 
basidia 9 u in diameter, and hyaline, even spores up to 9X 41—5 y. 
It seems probable that when there is opportunity to examine the 
type again it may be found to have similar basidia and belong in 
Tremellodendron. 
Stereum arenicolum Berkeley in Massee, Linn. Soc. Bot. Jour. 
27:201. 1890. 
"Resupinatum, effusum, crassum, rigidum, subtus tomento 
ferrugineo molli vestitum; hymenio levi, glabro fusco-purpu- 
rascente; sporae ellipsoideae, 7X 4-5 u (Berk. in Herb. n. 3822). 
“On sand under trees, Vera Cruz. 
"Rigid, thick, 2-3 inches across, attached to the sand and 
probably decayed wood by a dense ferrugineous tomentum; 
margin sometimes slightly upraised; substance pale cinnamon." 
The above should be compared with S. crassum.
