T. r e have three fine collections. George K. Hinsby and Dr. J. B. 
Cleland, Australia and jio w L. Rodway, Tasmania. The thin, yellowish 
cuticle which was a. marked, feature of Mr. Hinsby's specimen is not so 
in evidence in those from Dr. Cleland and Mr. Rodway but we feel it 
is the same plant. 
NOTE 1019 - TRAMETES ALBOTEXTA EROM L. RODWAY, TASMANIA.- 
As published Myc. Notes page 614, Fig. 868. As soon as I cut into 
this I recalled its peculiarity, white pore trama and brown hymenium. 
In the whole series I believe there is not another one with, this 
feature, Trametes albotexta wan-, named (1916) from South Africa. A 
second collection now from Tasmania illustrates the rarity and aberrant 
distribution of the species. On comparison the Tasmanian and South 
African specimens are surely the same species but minor differences. 
The Tasmanian has a. more spongy and darker surface. It really has a 
soft surface context layer. The spores in great abundance are paler 
and slightly larger, measuring about 4X6. We are always glad to 
have our published species confirmed by subsequent collections but we 
hardly expected to have this South African species turn up in Tasmania. 
NOTE 1020 - CORDYCEPS ROBERTS 11 IN TASMANIA, PROM L. RODWAY, 
TASMANIA.- This is the first collection known from Tasmania although 
it is not rare in New Zealand, (Compare Cordyceps Australasia, page 
5 & 6 and figure 616. ) Mr. Rodway has been collecting Tasmanian fungi 
for many years and a single specimen of this species is the only one 
he has ever found. He finds the related Cordyceps Gunnii more fre¬ 
quently . 
NOTE 1021 - GUEPINIA PEZIZAEFORMIS FROM L, RODWAY, TASMANIA.- 
Compare Myc. Notes page 658. Since we wrote that article we have 
received abundant specimens of "Dacryomyces" monticola from Dr. Weir, 
Northwest United States. These two species are close, surely co- 
generic and as a. matter of fact differ from both genera in which they 
are now classed in having a cortical cuticle, not gelatinous but 
composed of globose or bottle shaped cells. Both Dacryomyces and 
Guepinia are all gelatinous without such cells. Guepinia pezizaeformis 
is endemic as far as known in Australasia, and Dacryomyces monticola 
in our extreme northwest territory. In soaking these specimens out 
we find some are essile, dimidiate, others distinctly stalked. There 
is a good "new genus 1 ' here in these two species that some day will no 
doubt be exploited. 
NOTE 1022 - HEXAGONA GUNNII FROM L. RODWAY, TASMANIA,- A fine 
specimen in fresh condition from which I obtain the following data. 
The trama is colored umber but the humenium is under the microscope 
hyaline. There are no cystydia but much imbedded, crystalline bodies. 
Spores are 8 X 20, cylindrical with a. central, globose gutta and so 
transparent that the gutta.. might be taken for the spores. The species 
is not rare in Australia on Eucalyptus but has never been found except¬ 
ing in Australasia.
