CEYLON POLYPORI. 
89 
It has been my aim in the final list to enumerate the different 
species under some name recognizable by mycologists in 
general. If a given species is found as Polystictus or Poly- 
porus or Trametes, it is placed there, as a rule, because that 
name has been previously employed for it, not because of any 
views of mine on the Hmits of the genera in question. That 
the name given is the earhest, or the one which will finally 
be adopted is not claimed. 
Berkeley and Broome’s list of Polyporoids in the Fungi of 
Ceylon has been taken as the basis of the following list of 
previous records, their names and numbers being quoted 
verbatim for each species ; other records are interpolated 
without numbers : — 
Previous Records. 
431. Lenzites applanata Fr. 
Specimen, Ceylon, 1851, in Herb. Kew is Hexagonia 
ochroleuca; specimen, “Ceylon, 4-5,000 feet, G. H. K. T.” 
also in Herb. Kew is Lenzites Palisoti {repanda), 
432. Lenzites deplanata Fr. (224). 
Thwaites 224 in Herb. Kew is Lenzites Palisoti 
{repanda). 
433. Lenzites repanda Fr. (962 ; Gardner 68, 120). 
Thwaites 962, Gardner 68 and 120, and Thwaites of 
1850 unnumbered are L. Palisoti {repanda). 
434. Lenzites aspera KL, Linn. 1833, p. 480 ; (Gardner 83). 
Gardner 83 is in Herb. Kew. 
436. Polyporus arcularius Fr. (177). On dead wood. Tala- 
galla, &c., Gardner. 
Specimens in Herb. Kew are Gardner 21 and Thwaites 
177. König’s Ceylon specimens were named Polyporus 
agariceus by Berkeley. Part of Thwaites 177 is in 
Herb. Peradeniya. Ceylon examples assigned to this 
species are subcartilaginous when fresh, and usually 
become horny when dry. Though it appears to be 
generally agreed that the tropical examples are identical 
with the European species, acquaintance with these 
in the fresh state makes this rather doubtful. Ceylon 
examples, especially from the low-country, would
