TAB. CCLXXXVIII.
BOLETUS suberosus? Linn.
I can find no plant that so well accords with Linnæus's description as this. The figures quoted for his plant by our English authors, I am confident, belong to other species. It has certainly a more cork-like texture than any other with which I am acquainted. I do not exactly comprehend what Linnæus meant by poris acutis (pores acute). I suspect it to be white when perfectly fresh.
TAB. CCLXXXIX.
BOLETUS hybridus.
This Boletus has many characters in common with the B. lachrymans and B. Medulla-panis. It is generally found growing horizontally under rotten floors attached by its back, spreading in large patches, forming more or left broad ramifications, often inosculating, of a cottony substance like the above mentioned, which are commonly known by the name of Dry-rot. The pores (which are seldom seen) are long, tubular, and cylindrical, by which it is distinguished from the other two.

AURICULARIA corrugata.
AURICULARIAtremelloides. Bull. 290.
PEZIZA tremelloides. With. 344.
TREMELLA corrugata. Relb. 898.
Very common on decayed gate-posts, old hewn trunks, Sec. attached by the back in large masses, forming a pileus in a similar manner to A. reflexa. The under furface is light-brown, becoming darker, sometimes purplish, and more corrugated when it gets older. The substance is at first gelatinous, inclining to cartilaginous, but dries hard and horny. The under side resembles in some respects Peziza auricularia of Withering.
