126 THE ESSEX NATURALIST. Entoloma Saundersii Fr.—Although there are two good illustrations of this species : Cooke 331 (306) and Boudier Ic. Pl. 93, there is some doubt as to its identity. Boudier gives 11-13µ and Rea 4-6 x 3-4µ for the spores. Quelet suggested that Cooke's figure represents a variety of E. clypeatum Fr. „ sinuatum Fr. = lividum Fr. Nolanea pascua. This name is excluded by most modern authors as it has been applied to many different species. It was described by Fries in Syst. Myc. as "proteus hujus sectionis, quem in " decern species distinguere possis." In Britain it was. until recent years, applied to a very common Nolanea found both in woods and pastures, which has been clearly defined by Bresadola under the name staurospora, and there seems to be general agreement to call it by this name. ,, pisciodora (Ces.) Fr.—Usually considered as the same as Naucoria cucumis, though the name has recently been applied to a genuine Nolanea. ,, proletaria Bond. ? non Fr. = staurospora Bres. subglobosa (A. & S.) Cke.—A somewhat doubtful species, retained in the list because Cooke's Ill. 1160 (1170) refers to an agaric gathered at Fairmead, Epping. Agaricus subglobosus A. & S. is said to have ochraceous spores and was referred by Fries to Naucoria. Cooke gives subglobose smooth spores, but many such spores are only slightly angular and they may not have been figured quite accurately. Presumably Cooke examined the spores before transferring the species to Nolanea. Claudopus variabilis (Pers.) Gill.—This common agaric has been left with its familiar name, but Claudopus, either as a genus or sub- genus, is applied by most modern authors only to species with pink angular spores, and variabilis is associated either with the genus Crepidotus Fr. or Dochnriopus Pat. Pholiota comosa.—Cooke's Ill. 388 (600) from Epping Forest represents Pholiota destruens. terrigena Fr.—Cooke's Ill. 376 (340) from Epping Forest is typical Pholiota ochro-chlora, but P. terrigena was recorded at the Foray of the British Mycological Society, Oct., 1906, and is therefore, left in the list. Inocybe carpta (Scop.) Fr.—It is doubtful to what species this record refers, as some authors apply the name to a species with smooth spores and others to one with nodulose spores. rimosa (Bull.) Fr. This epithet has been applied to many different species and has now been abandoned. Dr. Rene Maire con- siders that Inocybe asterospora was the original rimosa of Fries and the description in Syst. Myc. certainly suggests this. Hebeloma glutinosum (Lindg.) Fr. = Flammula lenta (Pers.) Fr. petiginosum Fr.= Inocybe petiginosa (Fr.) Quel. Flammula hybrida Fr.—Cooke's Ill. 486 (615) is Pholiota confragosa Fr. „ inopus Fr.—Cooke's Ill. 484 (446) is not this species, but what was later described as Hypholoma radicosum Lange.
