REA, CARLETON, England: 



Bovistella paludosa. I am glad to receive this plant from Mr. Rea, as 

 it is the first time, known to me, that the plant has been collected since 

 originally discovered in France by L<5veill<5 in 1845. Heretofore, the type 

 specimens were all that were known. 



RENAUDET, GEO., France: 



Xylaria hypoxylon (conidial form). 



RICK, REV. J., Brazil:' 



Cyathus stercoreus (In my opinion, although its habits are different. 

 m grew on rotten wood, but has the same cups, peridioles and spores as the 

 common manure species, Cyathus stercoreus " Phallus rugulosus" as named 

 by Rev. Rick Cyathus Poeppigii Laternea (unnamed species, I think ; if 

 ;not a laternea form of Clathrus chrysomycelinus. There is no yellow species 

 of Laternea known). Calvatia (cfr. lilacina) Calvatia (cfr. craniiformis). 



SCHUPP, REV., Brazil: 



Clathrus (species unknown to me). 



SCHULTZE-WEGE, MADAME, Germany : 



Fomes annosus Trametes gibbosa Polyportis betulinus Polyporus 

 adustus Polyporus rutrosus (as labeled unknown to me, but close to stip- 

 ticus I think) Polyporus vernalis (as labeled) Fomes pomaceus Polystictus 

 jversicolor Polyporus amorphus Polyporus radiatus Fomes applanatus 

 Fomes leucophaeus Lycoperdon perlatum. 



SIMMONDS, J. H., Australia: 



Calvatia lilacina (sterile base) Nidula (? young, sterile) Geaster 

 (intermediate between saccatus and rufescens). 



S\V ANTON, E. W., England: 



Polyporus frondosus Polyporus rutilans Polyporus radiatus Dae- 

 dalea confragosa (Trametes form) Trametes gibbosa Polyporus varius 

 Also two Porias and two Polyporli unknown to me. 



USSHER, C. B., Africa: 



Calvatia lilacina Phalloid. Surely an unnamed genus, I think. I 

 ban not well make it out from a dried specimen, but it is surely something 



novel. 



VAN BAMBEKE, DR. CHARLES, Belgium: 



Fomes conchatus Fomes Ribis Polyporus fumosus Polystictus abie- 

 fcis Polystictus cinnamomeus. 



WILSON, JAMES, Australia: 



Calvatia lilacina Phalloid (undeveloped, genus doubtful) Lycoper- 

 jlon pratense Lycoperdon cepseforme Scleroderma flavidum Cordyceps 

 |(sp. unknown to me) Polysaccum pisocarpium Stereum lobatum, I think.
