THE FUNGI OF ABBOT’S “FLORA BEDFORDIENSIS. ” 
239 
1,126.— Pez. calycina or P. bicolor. 
1.131. —Possibly Helot, lenticulare , Bull., but more likely some similar species. 
1.133. —Perhaps Patellaria atrnta, or an allied species. 
1,143.—“ Bull. 222,” is Glavaria aurea , Schseff., but Abbot’s species is perhaps 
different. 
1,150.—“ Bull. 452, 2,” is Thelephora coralloides, a French species ; Abbot’s 
may be T. caryophyllea, Pers., or T. palmata, Fr. 
1,160.—“Bull. 447,” is Lycoperdon giganteum; but doubtless Abbot, like 
many authors of his time, confounded other species of Lycoperdon 
with it. 
1,172 .—Hypoxylon fus cum, Fr., but also including other species of the genus. 
1,179.—A species of Melanconium. 
1.188. —A species of Yalsa. “ Bull. 432, 1,” is referred to V. enteroleuca, Fr., 
which is, in part, Valsa enteroleuca, Curr. 
1.189. —A species of Oytospora. 
1.190. —“Bull. 492, 1,” is Melogramma Bulliardi, but Abbot’s is something 
more common, as a Cucnrbitaria. 
1,200 .—Tricilia varia, Pers., or an allied species. The sessile Trichias cannot 
be determined without the microscope. 
1,207.—May be Pilob. Kleinii , which I have found growing in company with 
P. crystallinus. None of the earlier British records of Piloboli are 
trustworthy, except sometimes where figures are appended. 
1,211 .—Polyactis cana, or an ally. 
1,214.—Species of Bhytisma. Was R. acerinwn as common in Abbot’s time 
as it is now ? 
1.216. —Torula sporendonema = Oospora Crustacea, Sacc., and other species. 
1.217. —A species of Sporotrichum. 
D.—Doubtful or Indeterminable. 
918.—A species of Hymenula, or it might be Agyrium rufum, Pers. 
970. —May be Ag. elixus, but (?) “meadows.” 
971. —A Cortinarius, but indeterminable. 
1,010.—“Bolt. 13,” is referred by Fries, with doubt, to Gort. irregularis, 
but Abbot’s species is certainly different. 
1,026.—“ Schseff. 45,” is referred by Fries to Ag. dryophilus. Can Abbot have 
intended Ag. appendiculatus , which is otherwise not mentioned? 
1,041.—I cannot recognise this. The “ Obs.” contradicts the figure. 
1,042.—Fries refers “ Sow. 125,” with doubt, to Cortinarius evernius. 
1,054.—Unknown ; no figure quoted. 
1,064.—Might be Bolet. olivaceus, Sell., but (?) “cap. chestnut-coloured.” 
1,065.—“ Bull. 369,” is Bol. cyanescens, but Abbot most likely had some other 
species in view. 
1,076.—“ Bolt. 162,” is referred to Trametes odora, but (?) “ cap scaly.” 
1.132. —Not Bolton’s species. ? Ghlorosplenium ceruginosum. 
1.134. —This may be young Corticium cceruleum, as Mr. Phillips suggests. 
1,139.—I cannot recognise this. 
1,181.—“ Bolt. 124,” is Hysterium fraxini , but Abbot evidently intends 
something different. Can he mean Sph. pulvis-pyrius ; the rimose 
ostiolum might, under a low-power lens, be taken for a groove. 
1,198.—Possibly a Didymium (? squamulosum, which Mr. Hamson has sent 
me from the county). 
1,210.—Doubtless some species resembling Aspergillus glaucus in general 
outline. 
E.—Excluded Species. 
915, 932, 934, 935 are algse. 
921.—Possibly a Sclerotium (? varium). 
936.—Mycelium ; may be Ozonium auricomum, Grev. 
October, 1893.
