THE FUNGI OF EPPING FOREST. 129
Hypochnus (Fr.) Kant.—Continental mycologists have for some years
used Tomentella Pers. for resupinate species with loose
hymenium and aculeate spores. If the International Rules
of Nomenclature were followed strictly Karsten's (1881)
emendation of Hypochnus Fr. should have priority, but as
the genus Tomentella has been proposed for conservation,
it has been adopted for the present list.
Hypochnus fumosus Fr. = Corticium sulphureum Pers.
Phlebia vaga Fr. = Corticium sulphureum Pers.
Clavaria coralloides (Linn.) Fr. = cristata (Holmsk.) Fr.
fastigiata (Linn.) Fr. = corniculata var. pratensis.
fragilis (Holmsk.) Fr. = vermicularis Fr.
grisea (Pers.) Fr. = cinerea (Bull.) Fr.
,, dissipabilis Britzl. = inaequalis (Mull.) Fr.
Hirneola auricula-judae (Linn.) Fr. = Auricularia auricula-Judae (Linn.)
Schroet. Fries placed Auricularia among his Thelephorei
and Hirneola among the Tremellinei. Once the character of
the hymenium was known, there was no justification for
preserving Hirneola as a separate genus.
Ulocolla foliacea Bref. = Exidia Saccharina Fr. var. foliacea (Bref.) Bres.
Scleroderma vulgare (Horneum) Fr. —S. aurantium Pers.
