LETTER No. 15. 



Cincinnati, Ohio, May, 19C7. 



List of specimens received from Europe and foreign countries since the 

 last report (September, 1906). My thanks are extended to all who have 

 kindly sent specimens. It will be r.oted that many of the plants acknowl- 

 edged in this letter belong to the Polyporaceae. I am just beginning a 

 study of these plants, and at present do not claim any critical knowledge 

 of the subject. Many of the specimens I have received named, and in such 

 cases they are listed here under the names as received. I am now soliciting 

 specimens only of the Polyporaceae (viz: Polyporus, Fomes, Trametes, 

 Daedalea, etc.) from my European correspondents. So many specimens of 

 Gastromycetes have been received that I do not ask others excepting from 

 those who reside in extreme southern Europe. However, I will very gladly 

 name specimens of the Gastromycetes for those who so desire. 



Se voi avete residenza in Italia, nel Sud della Francia, in Spagna o 

 Portogallo, voi non potreste farmi favore piu grande, che di mandar mi i 

 vostri Gastromiceti. De tutte le sezioni d'E"uropa di cui io non ho cono- 

 scenza dei Gastromiceti e 1'estrema porzione meridonale. Vi sono. species 

 di questi funghi nelle parti del Sud che sono assai poco conoscinte. 



My publications are sent to those who favor me with specimens, and 

 I hope they are a partial return for the trouble. 

 Yours very truly,
