370 Messrs. Berkeley and Broome on British Fungi. XLTII. — Notices of British Fungi. By the Rev. M. J. Berkeley, F.R.S., and C. E. Broome, Esq., F.L.S. [Continued from ser. 5, vol. ix. p. 183.] 1989. *Agaricus (Lepiota) licmophorus, B. & Br. Linn. Soc. Journ. xi. p. 500. This was before recorded as a possible variety of A. cepce-stipes ; but as the species is published by Gillet under the name of Leptota JZammula } we think it right to give it its proper name. We observe in Gillet's book the following synonyms, of which the indication may be useful to other fungologists : — Amanita inaurata — Ay. strangulatus=A. Cecilice, Berk. Clitocybe Pel/eterii= 1'a.i il/tis leptqpus, Fr. Hygrophorus amoeni<s=II. ealpytrceformis, Fr. Clitocybe faiidissima = Ay. inamccnus, Fr. Volvaria pusio = Ay. temper 'at us, B. & Br. Marasmius erythropus=Ay. cohcerens, P. Coprinus evanidus— C.Ji/ifunnis, B. & Br. Pleuropus ylandidosus= Ay. ostreatus, Jacq. Nolanea picea = Ay. cucumis, P. 1990. A. (Lepiota) illinitus, Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 39. Penzance, J. Ralfs. 1991. A. (Tricholoma) oreinus, Fr. Syst. Myc. p. 52 ; Cooke, tab. 218 b. King's Cliffe. 1992. A. (Tricholoma) atrocinereus, Pers. Syn. p. 348 ; Cooke, tab. 52 a. Hothorpe, Norths., Miss Ruth Berkeley. 1993. A. (Clitocybe) cyanophceus, Fr. Hym. Eur. p. 82, var. Pengellei, minor, B. & Br., Cooke, tab. 264. Cornwall, T. W. Pengelly, Esq. It is possible that this form may be specifically distinct ; but though it differs so much from the figure given by Gonner and Rabenhorst, the charac-ters answer so well to those which are given in Hym. Eur. that we do not consider it at present distinct. It occurred on two occasions; the abrupt white apex of the stem is very remarkable. 1994. A. (Clitocybe) rivulosus, Pers. Syn. p. 369. Var. neptuneus, Batsch, f. 115. On dry mountain-pastures near the sea, Llandulas, Miss Ruth Berkeley. Laccaria, n. g. Contextus tenax ; hymenium cum stipite confluens ; la-mellae crassse sporis globosis pulverulentse.
