original from Malay. Spores abundant, globose, hyaline, 5 mic. Cfr. 
Stip. Polyporoids, Sect. 19, page 129. 
NOTE 867- POLYPORUS GRAPEIANUS FROM E. D. MERRILL, 
PHILIPPINES: Co-type. This, for me is a good species, but has no 
resemblance to the plant I so referred in Philippine Polypores Mss, 
(pp. 26 and 110. ) The context color, pores and absence of setae 
ally this closely to Polyporus anebus bub (one specimen at least ) 
has a stipe and it would fall in Section 11 of Stipitate Po.1 yporoids. 
I should call the color light brown (about Sayal brown, Ridgway ) 
but of course color terms are largely individual ideas. It is a 
concolorous plant, the pores slightly darker than the context. I 
find no spores and the plant has "no setae. For me the plant does 
not suggest Polyporus cremeo-tomentosus. 
NOTE 868 - HETEROCHAETE PALLIDA FROM E. D. MERRILL, 
PHILIPPINES: The genus Heterochaete in the sense of this species is 
simply a resupinate Exidia, same gelatinous texture, same papillae, 
spores and basidia. Spores I do not find, but teste Bresadola, 
oblong, 6 X 10-12'. This species has a true relationship to tremel- 
laceous plants. This is the third "Hetero’c haste" that has come to 
me and each has a different type of texture. This is all gelatinous. 
Another was all cartilaginous and another pileus gelatinous, granules 
cartilaginous. It appears that Heterochaete is quite a heterogenous 
genus. 
NOTE 869 - "XYLARIA COPELANDII", CO-TYPE FROM S. D. MERRILL 
PHILIPPINES. What absolute punk it is for a.man with any preten¬ 
sions as a mycologist to do such work as this. It has not so much 
suggestion of a Xylaria as it has of a hemp~' seed. The plant is a 
Rosellinia and no doubt has many names in the museums. I never 
worked them over. I saw the same collection labeled "Xylaria Cope- 
landii, Henn." at Kew, but I thought it was an error of enclosure 
for I did not realize that even Hennings could make such a bull. 
NOTE 870 - FOMES VALIDUS FROM E. D. MERRILL, PHILIPPINES: 
Co-type. Probably a good species, but rests entirely on the context 
color. There is nothing "yellow-brown 1 ' to it to my eye, but "red- 
brown" and I would class it in Section 66 with "orange rufous" species. 
It is the same as Fomes tricolor excepting that the latter is brighter 
red. If it develops that Fomes validus is Fomes tricolor after 
several years of growth, I would not be surprised.
