SOME HIMALAYAN FUNGI. 
By M. C. Cooke. 
The following were communicated from the N.W. Himalayas, 
by J. Sykes Gamble, Esq. : — 
JEcidium Solani. Mont. 
On leaves of Solanum. Sutlej Valley. 
Probably the same as Montagne’s species from Chili. 
Fuccinia solani. C'ke. 
Caulicola. Soris atris, minimis, linearibus, subtus tomento in- 
sidentibus ; pseudosporis ellipticis, leniter constrictis, fuscis 
(•035-*04 x '018 -’02 mm.), pedicellis gracilis, elongatis, hyalinis. 
On stems of Solanum , associated with TEcidium Solani. Sutlej 
Valley, India. 
Coleeospoxium pingue. Lev. 
On leaves of Astilbe. Simla, 8,000 feet. 
^Scidium urceolatum. CTce. 
Epiphyllum vel caulicolum, deformans. Peridiis congestis, 
cylindrico-urceolatis, sub-sulphureis. Sporis aurantiacis, ovatis 
025 0 3 X *02 mm. 
On Thalictrum , which is very much distorted. Kanawar, India, 
8,000 feet. 
This appears to be certainly distinct from AL. Thalictri. Grev., 
the spores of which are *022 X *015 mm. The peculiar sulphur 
color of the peridia, independent of the color imparted by the 
spores, urceolate form, greater length, all indicate important 
differences, to say nothing of the twisting and distorting of the 
swollen peduncles and stems, which are not observed in AE. Tha- 
lictri. 
Lecythea epitea. Lev. 
On leaves of Salix daphnoides. Simla, 6,500 feet. 
TEcidium violae. Schum. 
On leaves of Viola. Simla, 6,500 feet. 
Lecythea xuboxum. Lev. 
On leaves of Rubus Jiavus. Sutlej Valley, 3,000 feet. 
Uxedo Hypexicoxum. D.C. 
On leaves of Hypericum. Simla, 6,500 feet. Spores immature. 
WOOLHOPE ANNUAL FORAY. 
The annual Foray of the Woolhope Club took place this year, 
as usual, at Hereford, throughout the week, from Oct. 1st to the 
4th, and was well attended by mycologists from all parts of 
England. A general account of the proceedings having been 
published elsewhere, it is only necessary here to enumerate some 
of the principal species collected, and exhibited at the show.
