Mycetozoa of the Rocky Mountains. (Trans. Brit. Mycol. Soc., 
1910, 3, 267—276, Worcester 1911.) 
This is a record of species found in the autumn of 1909 during 
a short time spent in Western Canada and the Rocky Mountains. Atten¬ 
tion in the case of Agarics was directed mainly to those species which 
would suffer least and allow of future examination. These were nine- 
tenths wood-loving species. The geographical distribution of most species 
is given. 
In the case of the My cetozoa there seems to have been no previous 
records of Canadian gatherings but in this paper there is given a pre¬ 
viously unpublished list of those made in 1897 by A. and G. Lister. 
To the species recorded by Cheesman, Miss Lister has added notes on 
their geographical distribution. J. Ramsbottom (London). 
COTTON, A. D., British Cl avariae. A correction. (Trans. Brit. Mycol. 
Soc., 1910, 3, 265—266, Worcester 1911.) 
In this note Cotton concludes the description of all the yellow 
unbranched Clavarias yet found in the British Isles by giving a descrip¬ 
tion of a new species Clavaria straminea . This species resembles C. 
argillacea in colour but differs in its smaller size and in its clubs being 
cylindrical and pointed instead of flat; it is moreover sharply distinguished 
from that species by possessing globose instead of elliptical spores. The 
species may possibly be the same as C. flavipes Pers. 
The figure of C. straminea was given in the last number of the 
Transactions of the Society under the name of C. persimilis owing to a 
misunderstanding. J. Ramsbottom (London). 
REA, CARLETON, New or rare British fungi. (Trans. Brit. Mycol. 
Soc., 1910, 3, 285—289, Worcester 1911.) 
This list of fungi is illustrated by three coloured plates. One new 
species Androsaceus epiphylloides is diagnosed and figured. It is easily 
distinguished from A. epiphyllus by the tomentose pileus and the long 
club-shaped spores. J. Ramsbottom (London). 
BRESADOLA, G., Poria Eyrei. (Trans. Brit. Mycol. Soc., 1910, 3, 264, 
Worcester 1911.) 
A new species of Poria is described (with figure) which is similar 
in habit and context of tubes to P. vaporaria but very distinct in yellow 
colour, obovate shape of spores and presence of cystidia.
