COCOA-PALM FUNGI. 
By M. C. CooKE. 
{Flate 86.) 
Having received a cocoa-nut palm from Demerara, British 
Guiana, for examination, in order to ascertain, if possible, the 
cause of disease, 1 found several distinct forms of Fungi flourish- 
ing on the dead palm, which had not merely been a long time on 
the voyage, but was some weeks delayed here before it came into 
my hands. It will be observed that, although the fungi enumerated 
are in no way connected with the death of the palm, they are, some 
of them, of peculiar interest. Common moulds, and mycelioid 
conditions of imperfect fungi are not included.
