Mycologia 
Special attention was given to edible and poisonous fungi. 
About 35 species were eaten, many of them in quantity and pre- 
pared in various ways. Many other edible species were not eaten 
because the specimens had to be preserved. Those accustomed 
to the fleshy forms occurring about New York City are entirely 
unprepared for the remarkable difference in the Adirondack 
fungous flora, which is distinctly northern unmixed with southern 
elements and is associated with coniferous forests rather than 
deciduous woodlands in which oaks and chestnuts are dominant.
