(11.) S. cepa, Persoon. 



This species has been collected by Messrs. W. W. Frog- 

 gatt, A. G. Hamilton, R. T. Baker and Miss M. Flockton, 

 and recorded for this State by Lloyd in Letters Nos. 8 (1905) 

 17 (1907) and 23 (1908), and Lycoperdacese (1905), p. 14. 

 The specimens collected by Mr. Baker are figured on Lloyd's 

 plate 31, fig. 1, with a suggestion that they may be unex- 

 panded specimens of S. ftavldum. We have also specimens 

 collected in the Botanic Gardens, Sydney (E. 0., March, 

 1908); Kingwell near Wyong(Rev.W. W. Watts, May, 1909); 

 Lily vale (A. A. Hamilton, April, 1912); Taronga Park, 

 Mosman (L. Abrahams, May, 1913); Neutral Bay (J. B. O., 

 July, 1915); Mount Irvine (J. B. O., June, 1915). The spores 

 of the latter specimens are 8*5/* in size, very rough. 



(12.) S. vulgare, Fr. (S. aurantium, Pers.) 



We have specimens collected in the Botanic Gardens by 

 Mr. M. McGovern in May, 1899, and by E. C. in February, 

 1907 and March, 1908, which we refer to this species. The 

 specimens are rarely found fully developed owing to being 

 crushed under foot by the traffic on the lawns.
