BOTANY

the species is painted from a Herefordshire specimen in Cooke's Illustration of British Fungi, and the conidial, aecidial or uredal state is only enumerated when the more perfect and higher condition of the same plant has not been recorded for the county, whereas the list in the Flora of Herefordshire enumerates all these forms separately. For the purpose of comparison we have set out under the different groups the numbers as recorded in the Flora of Herefordshire, and the present list and those recorded for Worcestershire and Gloucestershire.

  • r4 The No. 28, pL 27, of Cooke's Illustrations of British Fungi seems to be a form of Lepiota clypeolaria rather than this species. — C. R.
  1. It is very doubtful whether this is a good variety from the type. — C. R.
  2. This species has a strong smell of gas tar.
  3. This is, as Qu{{subst:e'}}let remarks with wonderful acumen, a white-spored Cortinarius,
