Lloydella, n. gen.= S’ tereum , hymenio cystidiis praedito—prouti 
Hymenochaete=iStereum setulis praedita. 
To this genus should be referred: 
Lloydella cinerascens (Sehw.) 
slnala (Sehrad.) (=Stereum striatum, 
abietinum, glaucesceus,) 
“ Chailletii (Pers.) 
“ spadicea (Pers.) 
“ “ var. venosa , Quel. 
“ bicolor (Pers.) 
“ membranacea , Fr. 
“ papyrina Mont. 
“ ferrea B. & C. 
Stereum frustulosum and St. areolatum both are rather Peniophora . 
122—PLEUROTUS SUBPALMATUS. 
Pileus rose or pink color, expanded, smooth, or the surface curi¬ 
ously raised into a network of reticulations, when moist somewhat 
gelatinous. Flesh pink. Gills adnate, pale 
pink color, (becoming deeper salmon color). 
vStipe slightly eccentric, fleshy, solid, with 
flesh pale reddish. Spores white with a 
faint pinkisli-cast, sub-globose 6 me. min¬ 
utely echinulate or angular. Very rare, 
growing on rotten logs. We have met it 
but once, but we know it has been found 
in Kansas and Minnesota. 
About fifteen years ago, Prof. Cragin 
then of Kansas, started out apparently to 
conquer the whole known field of Natural 
History. We find him writing papers on Rep- 
Fig. 23 . tiles, Mammals, Ferns, Lichens, Microscopic 
pieurotus subpaimatus, a small specimen, fungi, Geology, Fishes, Myriapods, Spiders, 
Mineralogy, Hymenoptera, Conchology, Protozoans and the larger 
fungi. In the latter field, after an experience covering one or two 
collecting seasons, he describes a 
large number of “new species,” 
(most of which work by the way 
would have been better done if 
it had not been done at all). 
Among others the plant under 
consideration, which although he 
did not even know its genus, did 
not deter him from describing it 
as a “new species,’, under the 
Fi s* 24 ‘ name “Agaricus alveolaris,” and 
Section of Pieurotus subpaimatus. he thought that it belonged tO 
the Hyporhodii. Saccardo compiles it under Pluteus. If it belongs 
to Hyporhodii it would be an Entoloma or Claudopus,
