MYCOLOGICAL EXPEDITION TO GUATEMALA.* 
W. A. KELLERMAN. 
During the winter months of January, February and March, 
1905, a botanical trip was made to Guatemala, Central America, 
for the purpose of collecting parasitic fungi. A trip for like 
purpose was again made in the corresponding months of 1906. 
A large amount of material was collected for study, the results 
of which may appear from time to time in future Nos. of the 
Journal. The itinerary only will be given in this article, with 
some account of the general botanical character of the regions 
visited. Later, notes will be published on the fungi, and some 
of the more interesting, as well as rare or new species, will be 
illustrated by a distribution of selected exsiccata. 
GENERAL TOPOGRAPHY. 
Guatemala is situated between 13.8 and 17.8 degrees north 
latitude, and 88.3 and 92.2 degrees longitude west of Green¬

on the north by Mexico, Yucatan and Belize (or British Hon¬ 
duras) ; on the East by Belize, Bay of Honduras and Spanish
