flabellatum, Brazil, mss. at Kew (as Stereum) = Cladoderris dendritica, thin 

 form (viz., mcmbranacea). 



formosa, Java, Leveille. Not seen by me, but said by the author sixty years 

 ago to be almost destroyed. From the description, surely only an infundibuliform 

 specimen of Cladoderris dendritica. 



fusca, Brazil, Cooke, = dendritica, only a little more rigid than usual. 



gausapata, France, Fries. In the original synopsis of the species of Clado- 

 derris Fries included this European species. It is a Stereum, as Fries afterwards 

 always classified it, and the same as Fries and most every one else called Stereum 

 spadiceum. 



Glaziovii, Brazil, Hennings, =dendritica, "harder and more rigid," but same 

 species for me. =also fusca (above) and same collection. 



Harrisii, Jamaica, mss. at Kew (as Stereum) =very thin form of Cladoderris 

 -dendritica, (viz. membranacea) with folds of the hymenium but little developed. 



insignis, Borneo, Cesati (as Beccariella) = Cladoderris elegans. Cotype at Kew. 



Kingiana, Malay, Massee (as Beccariella) = elegans (thin specimen). 



minima, England, Berkeley. Not a Cladoderris, but a little Stereum. It is 

 only known from two collections from Rev. Stevenson. I cannot agree that "though 

 small, it has exactly the structure of the exotic species." There are no Cladoderris 

 species in temperate regions. 



mussooriensis, India, Hennings. Not a Cladoderris, but a Stereum, Hennings 

 having evidently mistaken the top of the pileus for the hymenium. The hymenium 

 is perfectly smooth, and the plant has nothing whatever in common with Clado- 

 derris. The spores (abundant) are 5x6, hyaline, smooth (not echinulate, as stated 

 by Hennings). 



paradoxa, Philippines, Leveille (as Thelephora, but classed as Cladoderris in 

 cover now). It is a Stereum and probably abnormal at that. 



platensis, South America, Spegazzini. Unknown to me. Appears, from the 

 description to be thin form of dendritica, viz., membranacea. 



Pritzelii, Australia, Hennings. Only known from one specimen at Berlin. In 

 its macroscopic characters same as spongiosa, but this specimen has no stem. The 

 hymenium has large metuloids (unknown to the author), hence a " Lloydella-Clad- 

 oderris." 



Roccati, Africa, Mattirolo. Not seen by me, but from the description, 

 surely same as reached Cooke so abundantly from South Africa and which Cooke 

 referred to australica, but which I would refer to infundibuliformis, a smoother and 

 flabellate form. 



Schumanniana, New Guinea, Hennings. Not found by me at Berlin, but said 

 to be in the "Exhibition department." 



Thwaitesii, Ceylon, Berkeley. Type material (all known) very poor. Evidently 

 close to dendritica as to hymenium, but appears to have no tomentum layer. The 

 types are two little, spathulate plants. It will probably prove to be a good species 

 when known. 



P. S. 



Cladoderris membranacea. Our account on page 4 was written at Kew and we 

 took the name in the sense of Berkeley and the other specimen at Kew. If my 

 memory serves me right, there is a specimen at Kew supposed to be a cotype. At 

 Paris later we found an undoubted cotype. It is not the same as has been so taken 

 at Kew and in my opinion is not a Cladoderris.
