That this species is the true Hydniini stipatnm Fr. can scarcely be doubted, 

 though several specimens in FRIES' herbarium are referred (in my opinion er- 

 roneously) to HydmiDi avgiitum, owing perhaps to the fact that the spines in 

 the old state, when their tomentose surface is worn off or conglutinate, often 

 become pointed. The true Hydnuni argiituin has sharp-pointed spines from 

 the beginning and often more than one point on each spine and is possibly 

 identical with Hydmwi barba Jovis BULL. — BresaDOLA refers the species 

 here called H. stipatum to H. alutaceum, in my opinion wrongly. The speci- 

 men from which Fries' picture of Hydmivi alutaceiivi (Ic. sel. 194: i) was made 

 is still extant (in VON Post's herbarium). It has allantoid spores (6 — yx i — 1.5 ^Jt-) 

 and is identical with Kncifjia stejiospora Karst.
