their productiori can be ascribed only to the influence of the 
fungus, and the invasion of these tissues and their fate demon- 
strates directly its ability to act as a parasite; (c) inocukftions 
with the spores and mycelium of F. applanatus into livivfg trees 
resulted in an extensive browning of the inoculated Wood with 
a multiplication of tyloses—both far in excess of amiilar phe- 
nomena due to traumatic stimulation.” / 
Oudi mans’ Work on Functi 
The first volume of Oudemans’ “ Enumeratio Systematica 
Fungorum,” with about 1,360 pages of tex^, appeared in the latter 
part of 1919. It contains a bibliograpny of 2,107 tities and a 
host index of all the cryptogams and/he monocotyledons (as far 
as the orchids) that occur in Europaf either wild or in cultivation, 
with the fungi that are parasitic upon them. Engler’s nomencla- 
ture has been followed in the mjnn for the higher plants and Sac- 
cardo’s for the fungi. / 
Oudemans died in ipody/naving labored twenty-five years or 
more on this work. Dr.ytotsy succeeded in getting a Society at 
Haarlem to publish the * manuscript, after it was uevised and 
completed up to the Vear 1910 by de Boer, Paerels, and Vuyck. 
The first volume m/y be obtained for fifteen dollars from Mar- 
tinus Nijhoff, Lange Voorhout 9, The Hague, Holland. The 
remaining four/volumes are expected to appear in a few years. 
This first "volume is valuable because of its extended bibliog- 
raphy and the numerous citations to the literature of the fungi 
which it contains. As a host index for the fungi, it includes all 
European plants, many of which occur in this country, and also 
all plaots grown in conservatories in Europe, among which will 
be i/nnd many species from tropical America.

Errors in LindauT “ Thesaurus ” and Saccardo’s “ Sylloge” 
Several years ago I sent in some corrections for Lindau and 
Sydow’s Thesaurus litteraturae mycologicae . . .; a few more 
have come to my attention which I think may possibly be of in- 
terest to the readers of Mycologia.
