stictus pinsitus Polyporus licnoides, not typical but close Polystictus 

 caperatus, typical Polyporus gilvus with abnormal, faveolate hymenium. 

 Favolus Brasiliensis Lenzites betulina. The tropical plant while unques- 

 tionably the same species differs a little in general aspect from the tem- 

 perate region forms. Polystictus hirsutulus Polystictus pinsitus Irpex 

 coriaceus. (Cfr. Note 36). Fomes australis Polyporus gilvus Polyporus 

 brumalis (young) Polyporus versicolor, (pale.) Fomes leucophaeus (ab- 

 normally stipitate, sent as amboinensis.) 



SAHNI, B., India: 



Fomes fomentarius Polyporus squamosus Fomes ulmarius. All 

 three are European species, and exactly the same. 



TEPPER, J. G. O., South Australia: 



Calvatia rufoflavum Scleroderma flavidum Lycoperdon pratense 

 Geoglossum ? ? Mycelial mass of Polyporus basilapidoides ? 



UMEMURA, JINTARO, Japan: 



Polyporus ochroleucus. (On Prunus.) This is a Polyporus not 

 Trametes as found in Saccardo. Lenzites furcata. This is very close to 

 Lenzites betulina but has narrow dichotomous gills. Polystictus per- 

 gamenus (on Prunus). Polystictus pterygodes Cyclomyces fuscus (on 

 Quercus). Polyporus (on Quercus) rery close to dryadeus of Europe, same 

 peculiar, shiny context color. Spores subglobose 10x12 colored. Setae rare, 

 with a swollen base, acute. These are about same "structural" characters 

 as those of dryadeus but the Japanese plant has a smooth but distinct thin 

 crust which the European species does not have. Polyporus (on Diospyros) 

 (unknown to me). Stereum spadiceum. Hymenium reddens on being bruised. 

 Polystictus with a tawny, zonate, upper surface very similar to that of 

 Polystictus zonatus, but with isabelline context and pores. The pores are 

 very minute and fine. Trametes (on Cryptomeria). Unnamed I think. Color 

 surface, context and pores pale rose. Fomes (on Quercus). Unknown to 

 me but very distinct. Surface rugulose zoned, black. Context ferrugineous. 

 Annual layers very distinct narrow about 8 to an inch with a tro- 

 th in context layer between them. Pores minute. Spores colored, subglobose 

 3% x4. Setae slender. This is a species very distinct from any known to 

 me. Polystictus. This seems to be polyporoid when young, but when old 

 the pores are lacerate with a lamellate arrangement and then it is a better 

 Irpex. The teeth have hyaline cystidia. It is unknown to me. Polyporus 

 (on Albizzia). Unknown to me. 



WEIS, D. W., Massachusetts:
