Cross/and : Fungi of Masham and Swinton. 



2 3 



are contained in the Linnean Society's Transactions, Vol. 31, 

 pp. 466-7, PI. 18, fig's. 23-24. Mr. Massee has compared the 

 Masham specimens, and found them to fit in every detail. 

 The Mollisia amenticola has up to the present been a Continental 

 species found on decaying- female catkins of Alnus glutinosa. 

 Many of the records are undoubtedly new to Yorkshire, but it is 

 not possible at the present moment to say how many and which. 



In consequence of the continued investigations subsequent 

 to the August meeting, the editor considered it advisable to 

 keep the report and list of fungi apart from the general report 

 of the Excursion at Masham, and to include all the observations 

 in one paper. Mr. Gibbs has therefore kindly handed over to 

 me the mycological notes, taken at the Aug^ust excursion, which 

 he had in hand for the g-eneral report. 



It will be noticed that the host-plant or habitat of a species 

 is often omitted ; it has scarcely been possible, under the 

 circumstances, to give them in each case. 



The species observed at the August meeting are marked 

 by an asterisk. The collecting of the remainder stands to the 

 credit of Mr. Forbes and Mr. Thwaites. 



The classification of genera is the same as that used for 

 the Cadeby list.
