gathered Quélet’s species near Paris during the excursion. of the 
Societé Mycologique, and on my return I found near King’s Lynn 
A. adnata in a new habitat where I had ample opportunity of 
examining it carefully. One of the first points noticed was that 
some specimens had a ring while others had not so that it 1s 
evident these two species are identical but Mr. Smith's name 
has the priority. 
Lepiota Vittadini Fr. Another rare fungus which has never 
appeared at any of the fungus shows I have been at. ‘I have found 
it but once when it was growing in some long grass 1n an unused 
gateway by a road side. Many of the warts had fallen off of 
themselves and laid upon the ground beneath and around the fungus. 
The figure in the Illustrations t. 36 is after Krombholz t. 27 and a 
better one cannot be. 
Tricholoma equestre Linn, is a fungus rarely found in England but 
one of great beauty which ornaments the pine woods of Scotland to 
a limited extent, being of a brilliant yellow beneath, brighter even 
than T. sulphureum. ‘The colouration of pl. 72 is as much too pale 
as that of the next species J. sejunctum t. 53 1s too bright. 
Tricholoma portentosum Fr. Pl. 54, is from a sketch of Mr. James 
Renny, I believe everybody admits that the plant figured is Collybia 
platyphylla and not portentosum at all. 
Tricholoma acerbum Fr. Pl. 76 shows the character of the plant 
but is much too dark in colour. 
Tricholoma flavo-brunneum Fr. Pl. 58 is not a typical figure if it 
be one of the plant at all, The stem is too stout and there is no 
trace of yellow about the gills which 1s distinctive of the true plant. 
Tricholoma vaccinum P. Pl. 60 again is not so good a figure as it 
might have been. The true plant has a thinner stem and while the 
scales on the pileus are less numerous than those in the sketch they 
are larger. It was originally published as a figure of Trich. 
imbricatum but the author corrected the name. 
Tricholoma immundum Berk. P1.61 probably from Berkeley’s original 
figure is another uncommon species. I have met with it in two 
localities near King’s Lynn, and M. Boudier showed it to me last 
year in the Forest of Compeigne. It may always be known by its 
pale stone colour and by turning first dark blue and then black when 
bruised,
