The lenzitoid form is the commonest, according to Bresadola, who gives 
the spores as hyaline, 9 to 12 by 3I-4 p- 
T. funalis (Fr.) Ell. & Ev. Fibrous spongy, sessile, shell-form, ferru¬ 
ginous, almost entirely broken up into rough strand-like fibres which are 
rigid, branching and imbricated; pores thin, unequal, torn or toothed, 
pallid then fuscous. Sometimes pallid wood-color, with regular pores. 
Substance and spores colored. 
T. Kansensis Cragin. Dimidiate, sessile, pitted, tumulous, somewhat 
sulcate near the acute margin, which is brownish, passing to grayish and 
blackish toward the centre; within light chestnut-brown; pore surface 
tawny, more or less convex, smooth to the touch, easily marked by the 
fingernail; pores long, unequal, entire, multiform, subrotund to sinu¬ 
ate, obtuse, rather distant, lined with whitish or grayish brown ; trama 
yellowish in a narrow superficial zone. Kansas. 
T. Petersii B. & C. Flattened, minutely tomentose, very pale tawny, 
somewhat sulcate or zoned at the margin, which is barren ; pores puncti- 
form, dissepiments rigid, obtuse. Alabama. Referred by Cooke to Fomes. 
T. Pini (Brot.) Fr. Very hard, pulvinate, concentrically sulcate, 
rimose-scrupose, rough, fuscous-ferruginous becoming black, within 
tawny ferruginous; pores large, somewhat rounded or oblong, dull 
yellowish brick-color. On pine. 
T. odorata (Wulf.) Fr. Softish, villous, at first tawny within, extended 
with age, concentrically sulcate, rugose, tomentose, dark brown to black, 
margin and pores roundish, oblong, tawny cinnamon. Odor pleasing. 
T. rubescens (A. & S.) Fr. Reddish, or becoming so, all over, but white- 
pruinose when young, thin, smooth, at length zoned; pores linear, 
elongated, straight, narrow, obtuse. A form of D. confragosa, q. v. 
E. Pileus or substance white, whitish , or pallid. 
T. limitata B. & C. Small, roundish, thin, coriaceous, minutely 
tomentose, pallid, zoned; pores very small, distinctly angular when 
young, with thin dissepiments ; margin thin, sterile. N. Mexico. 
T. scutellata Schw. Small, an inch or less, dimidiate, orbiculate, or 
ungulate, commonly fixed by the apex; pilei very hard, white then 
brownish and blackish, becoming rugged and uneven, with white margin ; 
hymenium disk-shaped, concave, white-pulverulent becoming dark; pores 
minute, long, with thick, obtuse dissepiments. On fence-rails, Ohio, etc. 
T. Ohiensis Berk. Pulvinate, narrow, zoned, often laterally confluent, 
ochraceous white, tomentose, then glabrous laccate; otherwise as in the 
last of which it is said to be a synonym. 
T. suaveolens (L.) Fr. Rather soft at first, pulvinate, white, villous, 
zoneless; pores rotund, rather large, obtuse, white then darker; anise 
scented. Common on willow. 
T. odora Fr. Scarcely villous, and with minute, white-ochraceous 
very short pores ; otherwise like the last. Willow. 
T. lactea Berk. A common southern and tropical form, often very 
large, dull white, as if white-washed, more or less uneven, flattened, 
with a pale ochraceous pore-surface, is now, following Montagne and 
Berkeley, referred to Daedalea ambigua Berk. It is also known in liter¬ 
ature as T. ambigua (Berk.) Fr., T. incana Berk., and as T. Berkeleyi 
Cooke. Its variety coronata Cragin “ differs so remarkably in form ” 
[from T. ambigua] as to deserve a name, in the author’s opinion. It 
is higher than long, with the margin pinched off by a deep groove, and 
separated into four large, rounded, suberect lobes; near Topeka, Kansas. 
Daedalea Pers. 
Pores firm, sinuous or tortuous, even labyrinthiform (whence the 
name). Hard fungi, growing on wood, with a floccose substance which
