“This genus is based upon Boletus pavonius Hook. (Kunth, 
Syn. PI. i :io. 1822), described from Colombia. Its nearest 
ally is the old-world genus Cyclomyces, erected by Fries in 1830 
upon Cyclomyces fuscus. In this latter genus the tubes are con¬ 
tinuous concentric furrows, while in the species of Cyclomyce- 
tella which come nearest to Cyclomyces the concentric appear¬ 
ance of the hymenium is caused by the partial splitting of the 
radial walls in age; and the formation of furrows is by no means 
constant.”

Cycloporus Murrill n. g. Polyporaceae. Bulletin of the 
Torrey Botanical Club, 31 :423. Aug. 1904. 
“Hymenophore annual, tough, anoderm, terrestrial, orbic¬ 
ular, centrally stipitate; context soft, spongy, ferruginous; pores 
at first polygonal, soon becoming continuous concentric furrows, 
dissepiments thin, lamelloid; spores ovoid, smooth, ferruginous. 
“The type of the genus is Cyclomyces Greenei Berk. (Lond. 
Journ. B'ot. 4:306, pi. II. 1845), a very rare plant found in tem¬ 
perate regions of North America. The genus Cycloporus differs 
widely from Cyclomyces in being terrestial and stipitate instead 
of epixylous and sessile/'

Eichleriella Bresadola n. g. Tremellaceae. Annales My- 
cologici, 1:115. 3 1 Mar. 1903. 
“Fungi membranaceo-ceracei vel membranaceo-subgelatinosi, 
cupulares vel plano-concavi, raro penduli. Hymenium typice 
superum, discoideum, tantum in formis pendulis inferum, laeve 
vel subrugulosum. Basidia globoso-ovoidea, cruciatim partita, 
2-4-sterigmatica. Sporae hyalinae, cylindraceae, subcurvulae. 
“Est Stereum vel Cyphella frutificatione tremellacea. 
“Genus cl. B. Eichler jure meritoque dicatum.

Globofomes Murrill n. g. Polyporaceae. Bulletin of the 
Torrey Botanical Club, 31 ’.42 4. Aug. 1904. 
“Hymenophore large, woody, encrusted, perennial, epixylous, 
compound; context ferruginious, punky, tubes cylindrical, thick- 
walled, stratose; spores ovoid, smooth, ferruginous. 
“The type of this genus is Boletus graveolens Schw. (Syn. 
Fung. Car. 71. 1818), a rather rare plant first found in Georgia 
and the Carolinas, but later discovered as far west as Iowa. The 
genus is readily distinguished among its allies by its compound 
pileus, which consists of numerous small, closely imbricated 
pileoli united into a compact rounded mass. 
“The genus Xylopilus of Karsten (Hattsv. 2:69. 1882), 
is also described as having a compound pileus, but Xylopilus cras- 
sus (Fr.) Karst., its type species, is very probably only an abnor-
