 Kecskemet in Hungary and my friend cand. Winge of Copenhagen. 



Agaricineae. 



Cortiuariiis Fr. 

 Cortinarius (Myxacium) collinitus (Pers.) Fr. — Epier, p. 274. 



No. 27üa (coloured drawing) : bog north of Tlicrmometerfjæld, 4— (5 07; No. 355: 

 near the large lake, 9-8—07; No. 1911: Danmarks Havn, 10—7-08; No. 1916: Basis- 

 Itæret, 16-7—08. 



On the largest and best preserved specimens (No. 355) the belted 

 structure of the stalk is still to be seen; the other specimens are 

 less typical, hut undoubtedly belong within the range of this species, 

 which is very variable. In microscopical regards they are quite 

 the same. 



This species, which seems comparatively common, has probably 

 been brought home from Greenland on earlier occasions, without 

 its being possible to determine the specimens; cfr. Rostrup: Fungi 

 Groenlandiae orientalis etc., Medd. om Grønland XXX, p. 15: "In 

 collectionibus .... Agaricaceae .... indeterminabiles e generibus Rus- 

 sulae .... et Cortinarii inventae sunt". 



Cortinarius sp. 



No. 380: Cape Bismarck. 14-8—07.

No. 33a (coloured drawing): near the large lake, 1 — 8 — 07; No. 1760: in damp 

 moss, 18 -7—08. 



Cystidia bottle-shaped, usually with a small knob or bud on 

 the neck. In the material from Julianehaab I have found conical 

 cystides, w'hich how^ever showed a tendency to swell out above into 

 knobs; on the whole this species seems to contain several types in 

 regard to the form of the cystidia.
