SECTION PETALOIDES. 



brunneo-pictus from Malay, in Saccardo, but has no resemblance to 

 the original from Brazil. 



MARIANUS. Known only from the original. It is close to modestus, 

 but not the same. The color is not the same and it is more rigid. The two 

 following are close to Marianus. 



ASPERULUS. From New Caledonia. Type at Paris. 

 BRACHYPUS. From West Indies. Type at Paris. 



Konigii The only type at the British Museum from Ceylon comes in this section, but I have not a 

 very clear idea of it 



16. POLYPORUS. THIN, RIGID. STRONGLY ZONATE 

 WITH GRAYISH ZONES. 



GALLOPAVONIS. Pileus rigid, thin, usually orbicular or reni- 

 form with short, lateral stem. Surface with narrow, concentric, 

 gray zones. Pores minute, pale yellowish. Very common in the East, 

 in Java, the Philippines, Samoa, and Australia.

GAUDICHAUDII (Fig. 435). Pileus thin, with short, lateral 

 stipe. Surface with narrow, concentric, gray zones. Pores medium.

 larger. Specimen distributed in Zollinger's collection as Blumei be- 

 longs here. 



INCURVUS. Pileus thin, rigid, incurved in drying. Surface 

 with strongly cinereous or fuliginous zones. Stipe lateral, from 2-8 

 cm. long. Pores small, dark. Specimens from Java and Malay.
