BURNHAM, STEWART H., New York: 



Aleurodiscus Oakesii. (Compared with type by Miss Wakefield.) On 

 Ostrea. 



Aleurodiscus (species unknown to me). On Hemlock twigs. 



CRADWICK, WM., Jamaica: 



Coaster javanicus. (viz., the dark, tropical form of Geaster velutinus 

 =Geaster Lloydii.) 



GUNDERSON, MRS. MINNIE, Massachusetts: 



Polystictus pergamenus. Polyporus dichrous. Polyporus albellus 

 (discolored). Poria contigua. 



Poria versipora. The two Porias are to an extent doubtful, as this sec- 

 tion has never been critically worked out. 



HAGLUND, ERIK, Sweden: 



A nice lot of specimens, including the very rare Hydnum mirabile and 

 others, are of much interest. They are most all listed as labeled when 

 received. 



Lenzites betulina. Polyporus brumalis. Polyporus caesius. Tram3tes 

 cervina. Poria sinuosa. Poria mollusca. Hydnum (unnamed), (See Note 

 153). Hydnum nigrum. Hydnum melaleucum. Geoglossum fallax. Hel- 

 vella albipes. Otidea leporina. Otidea onitica. Hydnum caeruleum. Hyd- 

 num ferrugineum. Hydnum scrobiculatum. Hydnum mirabile (most rare. 

 See Note 154). 



LEEUWEN, DR. VAN, Java: 



Cladoderris infundibuliformis. Cladoderris elegans. Schizophyllum 

 commune. Polystictus occidentalis. Polystictus xanthopus. Lentinus 

 Sajor Caju. Polystictus sanguineus. Polyporus rugulosus. Lentinus 

 strigosus. 



Scleroderma luteum. Peridium globose, 2-4 cm. in diameter, smooth, 

 bright yellow tissue, the surface sometimes brownish. Rugulose in drying. 

 Gleba mass lead color, with no yellow flocci. Spores small 5-6 mic., very 

 slightly rough. 



This species, characterized by the bright yellow context of the peridium, 

 is of an Eastern distribution. I have previously received it from Dr. Chas. 

 Bernard, Java (cfr. Letter No. 25), and there is a collection at Kew from 

 Singapore. It differs from the European species not only in its bright yel- 

 low peridium tissue, but also in the smaller, smoother spores. 



Stcreum glabrescens. Polyporus antilopus. Lentinus connatus 

 (=:Lentinus javanicus Lev.). Fomes (Ganodermus) leucophaeus. Poly- 

 porus grammocephalus. Hirneola auricula Judae. Polyporus subvirgatus. 

 Hexagona tenuis. Polyporus (Ganodermus) cochlear. Trametes acuta. 

 Polyporus Emerici. Fomes rimosus. Polyporus xanthopus. Fomes senex. 

 Polystictus occidentalis. Hexagona plumbea. Polystictus luteus. Tra- 

 metes Persoonii. 



Lentinus maculatus. This is a very rare species, and this specimen is 

 the first I have ever gotten. It is strongly distinct, with a glabrous pileus, 

 marked with innate, darker spots. Stem, glabrous. Gills rather distant. 

 Only heretofore known from the scanty types at Kew. Polyporus obovatus.
