L. ROMELL, HYMENOMYCETES OF LAPPLAND. 17 
P. lapponicus n. sp. — Fig. 24 (spores). 
Pileus reflexus, carnoso-lentus, sordidus, non fissilis, in 
statu sicco rigidus, 1 cm. crassus, supra spumoso- vel fascicu- 
lato-tomentosus. Pori angulati, 3 per mm. Hyphe pilei in- 
tricate, non fibulatz, 4—7 u. late. Spore anguste oblonge, 
subfusoidex, 8—12 x 3—3 ?/, v. 
On Abies at Nattavara. 
Of this plant I found a single specimen only, and as I sup- 
posed it to belong to Pol. borealis, it was not described in fresh 
state. This specimen has been fixed along the centre and forms 
now an oblong cup of 7 !/, em. length and 3 '/, cm. breath and 
with a dirty or as it were toasted color. It can not be referred 
to P. borealis, as the pileus is not fissile and the spores too 
slender, the spores of P. borealis being 5—7 x 4—4 */, v. 
P. lenis. 
On rotten wood of Pinus silvestris at Jörn. — Though not 
collected by me in Lappland, I do not doubt that it will be 
found also there. 
Pores 3—4 or 2—5 per mm., angulate; partitions thin with 
minutely fimbriate margin. Hyphe tough, undulate, not fibu- 
late, 1'/,—3 w broad. Spores allantoid, strongly curved so as 
to form one half of a circle, 2-guttate, 4—4'/. x 1!/, —1"/, v. 
(the figures 4—4 '/, giving the length of the chord or diameter 
and not the actual length of the spore ). 
My specimens agree so well with the authentic specimens 
in KansTEN's herbarium that I do not doubt of the identity, 
the spores mentioned by KARSTEN being probably not the true 
ones. 
P. melanopus. 
At Björkliden. 
Pores about 6 per mm. Spores oblong, 6'/,—9 x 21/,—3 V, v. 
Some of the specimens differ from the form growing at 
Stockholm in being bay in the centre and tawny towards the 
margin. The pileus is now glabrous but shows under the lens 
some remains of a minute felt in the umbilicus. The habit 
resembles »Polyporus picipes» from North America which, how- 
ever, has smaller pores (about 9 per mm.) — The Swedish Pol. 
picipes seems to need further exploration on the place where it
