Mycologia 



How many of the sets of fungi were prepared is not known, 

 but one appears to have been purchased by Peck and another by 

 Bessey, whose herbaria are respectively in the New York State 

 Museum at Albany and in the herbarium of the University of 

 Nebraska at Lincoln. 



After Curtis' death his own herbarium, containing hundreds 

 of co-types of Berkeley and Curtis species, as well as portions of 

 Schweinitz specimens, was purchased by Dr. Farlow and is now 

 in the Cryptogamic herbarium at Harvard. Dr. Farlow writes 



" There are [with the Curtis herbarium] lists of several 

 thousand numbers of the things sent to Berkeley with the 

 corresponding numbers of the original collections so that 

 there is no difficulty in recognizing the numbers quoted by 

 Berkeley in Grevillea."
