Description of Plate 1 . 
Fig. A. — Pseudo-sclerotium of Lentinus similis, with Lentinus 
growing from it : irregular. 
Fig. B. — Three pseudo-sclerotia of Lentinus similis, subangular 
or rounded. 
Fig. C. — Pseudo-sclerotium of Lentinus similis viewed from 
above. Considered in relation to the tree, this upper surface 
corresponds with the cross section of the stem. The projecting 
portion on the right is directed radially. The furrows from left 
to right are the result of a greater decomposition along the 
zones which contain the vessels. 
Fig. D. — The same pseudo-sclerotium as in C, viewed from the 
outer side.
