 Order 116. Fungi. 



BY CHAS. H. PECK, STATE BOTANIST. 



The following list of Fungi is based upon specimens collected by Hon. 

 George W. Clinton and identified chiefly by me. Many of the species are 

 represented in the Herbarium of the State Cabinet of Natural History by speci- 

 mens contributed by Judge Clinton, and have been specially noticed in the 

 Annual Reports of the Regents of the University on the condition of the Cab- 

 inet. In view of this fact references are given to places in those Reports where 

 the species have been mentioned. 



The rapid progress made in the development of mycological science within 

 the few years just past requires numerous changes in nomenclature. The sy- 

 nonymy incident to the changes, and, in a few instances, to errors of identifica- 

 tion, has been given in the list and in a few cases extended even beyond its 

 connection with the Reports mentioned. C. H. P.
