114 TWENTY-SEVENTH EEP0ET ON THE STATE MUSEUM. 



Spoeobolus seeotinus Gr. 



Near the Old Adirondack Iron Works. Essex county. 



Equisetum sciepoides Mx. 



Shaded ravines. Adirondack Mts. 



Sphagnum neglectum Angst. 



Marshes between Nipple Top and Mt. Colvin. 



Dr. Braithwaite considers this as synonymons with S. 

 larioinum Spruce, and as it is somewhat doubtful if either 

 is more than a variety of S. sab secundum I forbear report- 

 ing it as a species to be added to our flora. 



Steeeocaulon condensatum Laur. 



A variety of this occurs on the high summits of the 

 Adirondacks. 



Agaeicus Campanella v. badipus Eng, Ft. 

 Ground in pine woods. West Albany. Oct. 



Agaeicus fibuloides Pk. 



Burnt ground. Forestburgh. Sept. 



Agaeicus steictioe Pk. 



A variety of this species occurs in sphagnous marshes in 

 Forestburgh. The stem is less straight and more fragile 

 than usual, and the pileus is somewhat concentrically zoned 

 when moist. 



COETINAEIUS ASPEE Pk. 



This plant sometimes grows in tufts or clusters and bears 

 a very close resemblance to Agaricus melleus, both in color 

 and in the character of the scales of the pileus. 



Lactaeius gltciosmus Fr. 



Abundant under pine trees in Forestburgh, where it gen- 

 erally has the pileus of a lurid-brown color. 



POLYPOEUS SULFUEEUS Fr. 



An unusually large and intricately confluent mass of this 

 fine and edible species was found growing on the trunk of a 

 cherry tree in Deerfield by Hon. Horatio Seymour. A part of 

 the specimen was presented to, and is preserved in, the State 

 Herbarium. He has also contributed specimens of Helvetia 

 esculenta var. conica Fr., which grew in considerable abund- 

 ance on his grounds in Deerfield.
