BURT THELEPHORACEAE OF NORTH AMERICA. XII 165 



Bresadola as S. concolor (Jungh.) and distributed in Elmer, 

 Philippine Islands Plants, show that this species is but slightly, 

 if at all, different from S. lobatum. The general aspect is the 

 same but the Philippine specimens are the larger; none of them 

 have their tomentum as soft and whitish as in S. lobatum. 

 Some of these specimens have shown in crushed preparations 

 spore-like bodies 3 m in diameter; spore collections of oriental 

 specimens should be made.
