REV. G. BRESADOLA. 



Foremost in the ranks of the mycologists of Kurope to-day 

 stands the man whose photograph we present above. We have been 

 in close correspondence with him for years, and we believe he has a 

 critical knowledge of mycology such as is possessed by few. ( hi him we 

 depended when we wrote our pamphlet on the geasters for advice in 

 the treatment of names of synonyms. In every instance where we 

 followed his advice, his views have since been confirmed by the in- 

 dependent investigations we have made in Kurope. We received his 

 photograph as a matter of friendly regard and its appearance in 

 Mycological Notes will be as much of a surprise to the donor as it is a] 

 pleasure to us to be able to present it to our friends. 



MITREMYOES RAVENELII UPSIDE DOWN. 



Those who have to do with printers always meet with trouble. 



There have been so many errors in Mycological Notes that we aimed to 

 be particularly careful with the last issue and we 

 think very few if any typographical errors got 

 through. But we encountered a new trouble. In 

 the last proof we saw of p. 201. the cut Mitremyces 

 Ravenelii was correctly inserted. The pressman in 

 underlaying the cut transposed it and in the article it 

 appeared upside down. This matter is very annoy- 

 ing but we presume as long as one is dependent 



on printers he will always have his troubles.
