32. LENTINELLUS Karst. Hattsv. 246. 1879. 
Sporocarp coriaceous, reviving, densely cespitose: pileus 
more or less irregular from crowding: lamellae adnate or de- 
current: spores white or hyaline: veil none: stipe central or 
subcentral, the bases connate. 
Type, Lentrnus umbellatus Fries. (Syll. 5: 594.) 
This includes the cespitose species of § Cochleatz and 
§ Cornucopioides of Lentinus, as given in the Sylloge. It is 
clearly distinct from the other segregates of Lentznus, but 
probably intergrades with cespitose species of C/vtocybe, of the 
Sylloge, which are here placed in Monadelphus. 
33. LENTINUS Fries, Syst. Orb. Veg. 77. 1825. 
Lentinus § Scleroma Fries, Nov. Symb. 35. 1851. 
Sporocarp coriaceous, reviving, arising from a tuberous 
sclerotium : pileus thin, deeply umbilicate or infundibuliform : 
lamellae decurrent: spores white or hyaline: veil none: stipe 
central, solid. 
Type, L. tuber-regium Fries. (Syll. 5: 604.) 
As here defined this is a strictly tropical genus and none 
of the species has been certainly identified from North 
America. 
34. POCILLARIA (P. Browne) O. Kuntze, Rev. Gen. 2: 
1891. 
Sporocarp coriaceous, reviving, arising from a mycelium 
of the usual form: pileus thin, umbilicate or infundibuliform : 
lamellae decurrent: spores white or hyaline: veil none: 
stipe central, solid, woody. 
Type, Lenténus crinitus (L.) Fries. (Syll. 5: 576.) 
This is here taken to include the central-stemmed species 
of Lentinus § Crinztd, § Pulverulentd and parts of § Cochleati 
and § Cornucoprordes. It is distinguished from Lentinus by 
the absence of tuberous sclerotia and from the following 
genus by the thin, infundibuliform pileus and decurrent 
lamellae. The species are mostly tropical. 
35. LENTINULA gen. nov. 
Sporocarp coriaceous, reviving: pileus thick, convex or
