KAWAMURA, PROFESSOR S., Japan: 



Colored sketches of Pseudocolus Javanicus and Laternea bi- 



columnata. 



LUDWIG, MONSIEUR, France: 



Pilacre faginea. I was most glad to get these specimens fresh, as 

 I have never collected it. Fomes salicinus Poria (cfr. contifcua). 



LUJA, EDOUARD, Africa: 



Clathrus Fischeri. Nicely dried specimens with* color notes which 

 demonstrate, I think, that this is a good species, clearly distinct from Clath- 

 rus cibarius of Australia. Clathrus camerunensis. This is th. 

 I have received this species. It is a question if it is not the same as 

 Clathrus pusillus of Australia. 



MAINGAUD, E., France: 



Polyporus betulinus Trametes Bulliardii Polystictus hirsm 

 Polystictus hirsutus, fauve form = lutescens, Pers. Peniophora quercina 

 (determined by Miss Wakefield). 



FETCH, PROFESSOR T., Ceylon: 



Fomes dochmius, compared with the type Polyporus rhinoci 

 heretofore only known from two specimens at Kew from Malay. Poria 

 Ravenelii, a black species quite common on palm stems in Ceylon. Fomes 

 subresinosus, recently and badly named. A common plant in the museums 

 formerly wrongly referred to Fomes nigro-laccatus. Polystictus versicolor, 

 growing on the elevated regions of Ceylon. 



ROLFS, P. H., England: 



Fomes applanatus Poria versipora Fomes pomaceus Polyporus 

 cuticularis Polystictus versicolor Polyporus adustus Polyporus lucidus 

 Polyporus squamosus Polystictus hirsutus. 



SWANTON, E. W., England: 



Fomes pomaceus Fomes ribis Daedalea unicolor Fomes anno- 

 sus. One specimen grew in a perpendicular position and produced a nodular 

 form exactly the same as shown in Bulliard's figure of Polyporus cryptaruni. 

 It is not Bulliard's "species," however, for the context color is different, but 

 it demonstrates that the peculiar shape of Bulliard's figure is simply due to 

 growing in an abnormal position, and has no specific importance. 



SUKSDORF, W. N., Washington: 



Crucibulum vulgare Polysaccum crassipes, a nice specimen 

 Geaster rufescens Nidula microcarpa, rare, occurring only in the North- 

 west. Geopora Cooperi, according to the description. Tuberaceous plants 

 are rarely received. The spores of this specimen are 16 x 28 

 occidentalis Lycoperdon piriforme (yellow form) Geaster hygrometricus
