Boletus medulapanis Hist. 167.

Bread crumb Boletus.

The place where this is to be looked for is in
some staked Hedge in a dry situation and upon
such stakes or binders as are become quite
rotten but still retaining their Bark.

It creeps on the surface of the Bark, is of a
very skin substance and when old and of the same
colour with the bark not easily discovered.  It
is of a pale colour at first turning fuscous with
age. -- The figure at .a. is in a young state at
.b. it is older, and at .c. magnified a little.
'tis in its nature and habit nearly related to the
dry rot.--
