Least Hydnum

This for ought I know is a true 
Nondescript, no writer which I have had
an opportunity of examining having
mentioned any thing like it.  The Authors
I have seen are indeed but few, and when
I say that a plant is new or a Nondescript
it must be understood in a limited
sense, becuase the plant may be both
described and figured in works which
I have not seen. Want of Books is most
certainly the heaviest affliction that can
befall a Naturalist.
