NOTE 960 POLYPORUS SUBPILEATUS FROM L. H. PENNINGTON, NEW 
YORK: We held in our pamphlet that this was a synonym for semisupinus 
Prof. Pennington sends two specimens, one (65) referred to subpilea- 
tus, the other (101 ) to semisupinus. The latter is the plant as we 
have considered it. It is mostly resupinate with a narrow reflexed 
margin, drying discolored, ’’bluish green, then-dark when bruised,” 
The former has thicker pileus and remains white. If really different 
or not we can not say. We have looked ovsr our collections, about 
thirty, and we would not try to sort them out into two species. What 
Prof. Pennington calls subpileatus is surely the same as grows in 
Europe and there passes usually as Polyporus chioneus. I believe 
no one really knows what chioneus is. 
NOTE 961 - TRAMETES PROTRACTA FROM PROF. L. H. PENNINGTON, 
NEW YORK: The actual relationship of species is not always indica¬ 
ted in a casual acquaintance with them. I have always held and I 
still hold that Trametes odorata does not occur in the United States; 
that our Trametes protracta is a trametoid form of Lensites saepiaria 
and I still believe that. But if this collection had come to me from 
Europe I should have referred it to Trametes odorata. As 1 now view 
it, Trametes odorata, Trametes protracta and Lensites saepiaria are 
in their essentials the same, the same context color, the same pore 
mouth color when fresh and the same spores. But they differ as 
follows: 
F0ME3 0D0RATU3.- Very fragrant when fresh. Large plant, 
usually three or four inches. Pores usually elongated, rather large. 
This is a true Pomes although it has usually passed as Trametes 
odorata. 
inches. 
TRAMETES PROTRACTA.- Not fragrant. Small plant, one or two 
Pores small, round, trametoid. Rather rare. 
LENZITES SAEPIARIA.- Not fragrant. Small plant, one or two

Context color russet brown. Pore mouths yellow when fresh and grow¬ 
ing but color usually disappearing on dried specimens. I was quite 
familiar with Fomes odorata for years but never suspected that its 
pore mouths were yellow until I collected it in Sweden. Spores cylin¬
