REPORT OF SPECIMENS 
My best thanks are extended to those who favor me by for¬ 
warding to me their collections of the fungi of their regions, and 
particularly those who live in the tropics. Every day it becomes 
easier to determine the specimens for the common species have mostly 
taken definite form and I recognize the larger part of them at sight. 
Still each lot received brings considerable work, and though I am 
behind at present, I hope correspondents will not hesitate to send 
in their specimens on that account. They will all be worked over 
in time and those that are rare or of special interest will be 
published. All the large fungi are desired excepting the Agarics. 
It has been several years since I have had time to do any 
collecting. The present season is so favorable that notwithstanding 
I am so far behind with my report to correspondents I expect tc 
devote August, September and October to local collections. There 
are many fungi in our woods that I do not know,, and X am anxious to 
learn those that occur locally at least, I will therefore have to 
ask the indulgence of those who send specimens until after the 
collecting season. 
In the following list I have put:,in capitals those plants 
that on account of rarity or novelty are of especial interest and 
on which articles have been or will be written and published. But 
do not get the impression that I only want rarities or unusual 
things. On the contrary, I am more interested in the "old species", 
their abundance, distribution and variation, and collections of the 
most common species, especially from the tropics are always welcome. 
In my printed Letters I do not give authorities for names, 
believing that the binomial should represent a plant name, but in 
acknowledging the specimens to my correspondents I give the "authori¬ 
ty" in the event they desire to use it. All specimens are acknow¬ 
ledged by personal letter as soon as I get time to study and report 
on them. Foreign correspondents may send specimens to my English 
address and they will re^ch me promptly, although in countries ' 
which have direct parcel post arrangements with the United States 
it is best to send them by parcel post direct to me. Specimens may 
be sent to either of the following addresses::
