On a beech tree. Epping Forest, Mr. J. English. 



On comparing the specific characters of H. ctrrhatum and 

 H. corrugatum there could be no doubt about Mr. English's 

 plant being the former species ; but this is not so clear on com- 

 paring the figures in Fries's 'Icones.'

 ceous tint; imbricated, confluent behind ; aculei long; pileus 

 rough, with abortive prickles.

Diiiers from C. Curreyi in the colour of the hymenium, 

 Avhich is rugose, like that of Cantharellus muscigenus, and its 

 more irregular form. It appears also not to be erumpent as 

 that species often is, but is seated on the bark or wood. Spores 

 •00025--0003,5 inch long, elliptic.
