NEW SPECIES OF FUNGI. \\ 



flesh white ; aculei white ; stem short, solid, central or eccentric, 

 white ; spores subglobose, .00016 to .0002 in. in diameter. 



Plant 1 to 2 in. high, pileus 1 to 1.5 in. broad, stem 3 to 5 lines 

 thick. 



Ground in thin woods. Sandlake. June and July. 



The species is closely allied to Hydnum repandum, with which it 

 appears to have been united by some authors, but its small size, 

 white color and smaller spores appear to me to make it worthy of 

 specific distinction. It is quite unlike Hydnum candidum. The 

 pileus is often irregular and lobed on the margin. 



Clavaria divaricata. 



Stem short, small, whitish, much branched ; branches widely 

 spreading, terete, even or slighty longitudinally wrinkled, more or 

 less curved, pale-ochraceous, the ultimate ones tapering outward and 

 terminating in one or more acute points ; spores .0004 to .0005 in. 

 long, .0002 to .00025 broad. 



Tufts 2 to 4 in. high, and nearly as broad. 



Woods. Sandlake. August. 



This is a rare species, and is remarkable for and easily distin- 

 guished by its divaricate branches which give to the plant a very 

 spreading, straggling aspect. 



The following species were described in the Thirty-second Report 

 of the State Museum, but owing to the limited edition and the 

 incomplete manner (without plates) of the publication of that Report 

 it has been thought best to repeat these descriptions here. 



Clitocybe subhirta. 



Pileus at first convex, then expanded or slightly depressed, tomen- 

 tose-hairy and pale-yellow or buff, becoming subglabrous and whitish 

 with a2;e, the margin incurved ; lamella? close, adnate or decurrent. 



O 7 O 7 



whitish or pale yellow ; stem subequal, stuffed or hollow, whitish ; 

 spores subglobose or broadly elliptical, .0002 to .00025 in. long. 



Plant 1 to 3 in. high, pileus 1 to 3 in. broad, stem 2 to 4 lines thick. 



Woods. Brewerton. September. 



The species belongs to the section Disciformes, and is near Clilo- 

 cybe subalutacea, but distinct from it and all its other allies by the 

 hairy pileus. Sometimes the hairs are more conspicuous on the mar- 

 gin than on the disk.
