NOTE, 
In the case of certain terms to be found in this glossary the definitions are 
not those of the strictest botanical usage; they are rather interpretations of 
such terms as they have been applied to fungi. 
To indicate the length of accented vowels a mechanical plan of dividing the 
words (ignoring the syllabic structure) has been adopted, as follows: if the break 
follows a vowel that vowel is long as Azo'nate; if the break follows a consonant 
the preceding vowel is short as Paraph'ysis. 
The compiler, while accepting the entire responsibility for the glossary and es¬ 
pecially for the errors which it may contain, desires to express appreciation and 
thanks to Mr. Hollis Webster, Miss Jennie F. Conant, Prof. E. A. Burt, and oth¬ 
ers who have very kindly assisted by advice and suggestion.
