MEMORABILIA. 
Thelephora pedicellata, Schw . — According to authentic 
specimens we are led to the conclusion that Thelephora suffulta , 
B. & Br., 'Thelephora retiformis , B. & C., and Thelephora reticulata, 
B. & C., are all merely forms of one and the same species known 
as Thelephora pedicellata, S. 
British Edible Fungi. — A little volume under this title, by 
M. C. Cooke, with twelve coloured plates, including forty species, 
is now in the press, and will shortly be published at seven shillings 
and sixpence, by Messrs. Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner and Co., 
of No. 1, Paternoster Square, E.C. 
Emericella varieoolor, B. Br . — On the portions of wood 
bearing the above fungus there is a copious development of 
Inzengcea erythrospora , Borzi, fully described and beautifully illus- 
trated in Pringsheim’s “ Jahrbucher,” 1885, p. 450, and again 
described as the type of a new genus called Theclospora by Harkness 
in “ Californian Fungi,” p. 21. The latter mistake was corrected 
in “ Grevillea,” 1888, p. 116; nevertheless, M. N. Patouillard, 
President of the Socidte Mycologique de France, has fallen into 
the error of mistaking the latter for the true Emericella , with 
which it is mixed. The author’s description and figures in the 
“ Bulletin de la Soci6te Mycologique de France,” Yol. VII., p. 45 
(1891), refer entirely to Inzengcea. Nevertheless, the learned 
President has utilized this material to show that I was entirely 
mistaken in my ideas respecting the nature of Emericella. — G. M.
