Sheldon of Oswego, N. Y., was presented to the State Museum during the summer of 1914. The herbarium represents the botanical activity of a lifetime on the part of Professor Sheldon, numbering over 14,000 mounted specimens from every portion of the United States, Canada, Mexico and Europe. Several valuable exissicati are represented in the collection, including Pringle (Mexico), Curtis (Florida), Langlois (Louisiana) and several others. Professor Charles S. Sheldon was born in Oswego, and received his early education in the public and high schools of that city. He was graduated from the Oswego Normal School in 1875. The next year was spent under Dr James Hall, arranging the State collection of minerals at Albany. From 1876 to 1880 Professor Sheldon was a student at Cornell University, from which he was graduated with honor. While at Cornell Professor Sheldon developed under Doctor Prentiss, then professor of botany, a love for the study of botany which resulted in the formation of an herbarium destined to become one of the largest private collections in the State. For the next thirty-four years Professor Sheldon followed the profession of teaching, beginning with the public schools of Alexan- dria Bay, N. Y. (1881-83), then as head of the science department of the Missouri State Normal School at Kirkville, Mo. (1883-93), and the chair of biology in the State Normal School at Oswego, N. Y. (1893-1914). During his years in + Missouri, Presser Sheldon spent his sum- mers botanizing in the western states and territories, Nevada and Utah being the only states not visited. His collections in this region represent nearly 1500 different species. After coming to Oswego his opportunities to collect became more limited and most of his spare moments were devoted to the mounting and systematizing of his collections and enlarging his hebarium by means of extensive exchanges, until the collection contained close to 20,000 specimens. Owing to insect depredations, many specimens were ruined, so that the collection at present contains about 15,000 good specimens, exclusive of about 300 duplicates. .

Two other species, G. subflavidus Murrill and G. viridans Murrill, become green spotted when handled, but they are entirely different from Miss McKenny’s plant. For the benefit of those using Saccardo’s nomenclature, this species is recombined as Flammula subviridis Murrill. Cercospora absinthii (Peck) Sacc.

HOUSE | Among some specimens received for identification from Prof. M..S. Baxter, of Rochester, was found a grass which was deter- mined as Stipa comata Trin. & Rupr., known in the west as porcupine or blow-out grass. Its natural range is from lowa to Texas, California and Yukon. It is an interesting addition to the already long list of western plants which have become established in. the vicinity of the Cobb’s hill reservoir at Rochester and collected there by Mr Baxter and by Miss Beckwith. ) With the cutting away of the forests of the east and the gradual drying up of a large portion’of the soil, the tide of weed migration - from European countries has been met by a countermigration of western species, which are largely adapted to dry situations, into the fields and waste places of the eastern states. Following the construction of the Cobb’s hill reservoir at Roch- ester, a rather notable establishment of western species took place. This may be partly explained by the use of western hay or grain for the animals used in the work, if such was the case: In the ab- sence of evidence regarding the means by which the seeds of these western species reached Cobb’s hill, and the fact that few of them have been reported from other eastern localities would seem to indicate that the seeds reached there in either hay or grain. During the summers of 1910 to 1914, a large number of these western emigrants were collected there by Prof. M. S. Baxter and by Miss Florence Beckwith. The list of them which follows in- cludes only those deposited in the State herbarium. Artemisia carruthi Wood * biennis Willd. dracunculoides Pursh = frigida Willd. glauca Pall. by trifida Nutt.

The colony of plants consists of less than a dozen individuals, tightly wedged in an almost inaccessible crevice of the cliff. The range of the species is chiefly subarctic, from Labrador to Maine and Vermont and northern Europe. The State herbarium contains in addition a specimen collected on the cliffs of the west side of Seneca lake, many years ago by Samuel H. Wright M. D., and which has seemingly passed unquestioned as Sedum telephioides Michx., which it was labeled. The fruit character, however, consisting of four erect folicles with their tips barely spreading, serves to distinguish it readily from Sedum telephioides, which possesses usually five distinctly spread- ing folicles. According to the books Rhodiola rosea has also been collected on the cliffs of the Delaware river in eastern Pennsylvania. 4 ONEIDA. COUNTY Agrostis maritima Lam.

PENNINGTON ‘PH.D. Professor of Botany in Syracuse University, Syracuse, New York Many species of Marasmius occupy a unique position as the xero- phytes among the Agarics.. They play an important role in the formation of humus, since among the higher fungi they are the first to attack and begin the decomposition of leaves, twigs etc. which fall into situations not moist enough to permit the growth of ordinary humus forming fungi. For example, Marasmius androsaceous (L.) Fr. grows upon dead pine needles upon ledges of rock and other exposed situations where the rain water runs off or dries up quickly, and Marasmius minutus Peck may be found upon dead leaves before they have fallen to the ground. The ability of the dried plants to revive readily when moistened makes it possible for them to take advantage of every moist period, no matter how short, to continue their growth. Although many species of Marasmius are among the first fungi to begin the decay of plant tissues, very few of them are parasitic, and therefore they play but a small part in causing plant disease. In the tropics a few species as M. sacchari Wakker, and M. plicatus Wakker are known to cause serious rootrot in sugar cane. M. caryophylleus (Schaeff.) Schromiygaee common fairy ring mushroom, has been shown to be a weak para- site upon roots and underground stems of grasses. The grass is at- first stimulated to produce a more vigorous growth with a darker ~ green color than usual. It may then die thus making it possible, even when the fungus is not visible, to detect its presence in lawns . by the bare spots where it has killed the grass. M. caryophylleus is practically the only species of Marasmius which is commonly used as a food. This species is highly esteemed by many people and is considered equal to any other mushroom for the table. M. alliatus (Schaeff.) Schrot., which has the odor and taste of onions, is said to be used in European countries to flavor other dishes. Several species have a bitter or acrid taste and are considered as poisonous. Some have both a disagreeable odor and taste. Pa Seventy-one species of Marasmius are known in temperate North America. Fifty-five of these have been described or reported from New York State, the majority of them by the illustrious former State Botanist Dr Charles H. Peck. Seventeen species are con- sidered as common to both Europe and North America. Further : REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST IQI4 53 study will probably show that more of our American species are common to both continents. In a few instances where there has been confusion of names, American names have been retained for species which are apparently found in Europe also. A more complete account of the North American species of Marasmius is to be found in vol. 9, pt. 4 of the North American Flora (1915). A few species, as M. nigripes saa Fr. and M. foeti- dus (Sow.) Fr., are somewhat gelatinous when they are fresh and moist. They have therefore sometimes been considered as belong- ing to the genus Heliomyces. Since the species of Heliomyces are practically confined to the tropics and the above-named species resemble species of Marasmius more than they resemble the typical species of Heliomyces, they are here retained in the genus Maras- mius. The Fresian system of classification has not been found to be entirely practicable for our species. The general arrangement of the species from the large Collybia-like forms down to the small forms with the tough bristlelike stipe is very similar to the usual arrange- ment. Rather more attention, however, has been paid to the stipe with respect to its surface, whether rough and hairy or smooth and shining, than to the character of the pileus. At its best any system of classification is more or less artificial. The present arrangement will serve its purpose if it helps the student to identify the species of Marasmius as he finds them. Maramius Fries Gen. Hymen 9g. 1836 Pileus tough, fleshy to membranous, either continuous with the stipe or of a different texture, surface often sulcate or striate, not zonate, dry, glabrous or rarely minutely tomentose or pruinose, _ margin involute or straight in young plants, becoming broadly con- vex, plane or uplifted with the disk elevated or depressed, rarely umbilicate; context more or less tough and dry, sometimes soit fleshy but not brittle, dry plants reviving when moistened ; lamellae dry, rather thin, often of unequal length, often interveined, but seldom forking, developing slowly, rarely remaining very narrow, almost veinlike; color varying from white to yellow, reddish or _ purplish, often changing in dry plants; stipe central, seldom fleshy, tough, horny, stuffed or hollow, often slender or capillary, some- times solid, glabrous or more or less tomentose, hairy, or strigose ; 54 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM spores white, smooth (angular in M. nigripes) (Schw.)

The only difference in the descriptions of the two species is in the size of the spores, which are given as subglobose 3-4»for M. graminum andg by 5-6yn for M. Curreyi. It is very possible that the spore measurements of M. graminum are based upon immature plants. 78 NEW YORK STATE. MUSEUM 56 Marasmius albiceps Peck Ann. Rep’t N. Y. State Mus., 43:67. 1890.

Upon dead leaves and sticks in woods. Not uncommon. This species might be considered as one of the many forms of M. siccus (Schw.) Fr. Its red or purple color and small size are usually sufficient, however, to distinguish it from forms of M. siccus. 60 Marasmius androsaceus (L) Fries Epicr. Myc. 385. 1838.

Upon dead leaves of deciduous trees. Not uncommon. Closely related to M. androsaceus (Bull.) Fr. from which it may be distinguished by its colored lamellae and _ pileus without striation. M. melanopus seems to be confined to leaves of deciduous trees while M. androsaceus is usually found upon needles of conifers. 80 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM _ THE FUNGI OF NORTH ELBA BY-C. H. KAUFFMAN ~ For the purpose of obtaining, for the Cryptogamic herbarium of the University of Michigan, a representative collection of the fungi of the Adirondacks, a trip was planned to the collecting grounds of Doctor Peck at North Elba. The writer was accompanied by Mr — E. B. Mains as assistant, and the collecting was done between August 31 and September 21, 1914. We located at the south end of the town of Newman. During the three weeks of our stay the weather was extremely propitious for the growth of fungi. For sev- — eral weeks before our arrival and during most of the time thereafter, it rained heavily and almost continually. As a result the fungi, especially the Agarics, were to be found in such abundance that we are able to add a large number of records to the already large list of Doctor Peck.1 The region covered has in a general way a radius of 3 or 4 miles from Newman. This, it should be noted, is a very small part of the territory studied by Doctor Peck. The most striking characteristic of this region is the abundance of species of Cortinarii. These are, however, largely limited to the sub- genera Telamonia, Dermocybe, and Hydrocybe. This is in sharp contrast to the flora of a region of hardwoods like that of southern Michigan, for in the latter area the subgenera Phlegmacium and — Myxacium predominate. It may also be worth while to point out — that the forests and forest floor and the subalpine conditions of this region are very similar to those about Stockholm and Upsala, Swe- den. The species of fungi should then also be very similar in both places. With this in mind, it was not surprising to find a large num- ~ ber, especially of the genus Cortinarius, which the writer had col- — lected in that country. Mr Mains gave special attention to the Uredinales and Ascomy- cetes, and those groups have been identified largely by him. We here kindly thank Professor Arthur and Mr C. G. Lloyd for courtesies extended in the examination of some of the rusts and Hymenomycetes. MYXOMYCETES EXOSPOREAE | Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa (Muell.) Macbr. On moist decayed wood.

Pileus 1.5—4 cm broad, convex then plane, light brownish olive to ' buffy citrine (Ridg.), unicolorous, densely innately fibrillose-hairy, even, opaque, margin at first incurved then decurved. Flesh con- color, thin on margin. Gills at first chrysolite green (Ridg.), then yellowish cinnamon, adnate, emarginate, rather broad, close, thickish, entire on edge. Stem 7-10 cm long, 3—5 mm thick, slender, equal, stuffed then hollow, brownish olive, concolor within, fibrillose, mycelioid at base and attached to sphagnum. Cortina olivaceous. Spores oval-elliptical, 8-9 by 5-6 microns; roughish. Odor slight, not of radish. Taste mild. On deep sphagnum in swamp of balsam trees. The species be- longs to the subgenus Dermocybe. It is related to C. rapha- noides Fr. but differs in habitat, more slender habit, and lacks the odor and taste of that species. The colors become rather darker as the plant loses moisture. Cortinarius cinnamomeus Fr. In swamps of cedar, balsam etc. on mosses. A number of its varieties also occurred. Cortinarius claricolor-Fr. Among fallen needles of spruce and pine. The color of the pileus is raw-sienna to orange-buff (Ridg.). The stem is while silky-fibrillose at first but not at all ringed as in e. triumphans.Fr. Cortinarius cylindripes Kauff. In balsam swamp. Cortinarius deceptivus Kauff. Among debris in conifer woods. The violet to lavender color of the young plant is much deeper than in C. anomalus and fades rapidly. ; Cortinarius decipiens Fr. Among mosses and sphagnum in bal- sam and tamarack swamp. A slender plant whose pileus possesses a prominent blackish umbo. The gills soon become Mars-yellow (Ridg.). A variety minor occurs. Cortinarius erugatus Fr. Under conifers. I02 NEW YORK STALE MUSEUM Cortinarius erythrinus Fr. Under balsam trees on bare soil. - Smaller than C. decipiens, with violaceous hues at the apex — of the slender stem. : Cortinarius evernius Fr. In tamarack and spruce swamp. The stems are often deeply embedded in mosses and may become 15-20 cm long; when fresh they are colored a brilliant lavender-violet, especially toward the base. Cortinarius flexipes Fr. minor. In mosses under spruce trees. One of the prettiest. The pileus is densely covered by grayish white, subagglutinate, fibrillose scales up to the acute umbo. Cortinarius glabellus Kauff. On the ground in mixed woods. Cortinarius glandicolor Fr. On the ground in conifer forests after heavy rains. The dark colors of all parts are striking. Easily confused with the stouter forms of C. uraceus Fr. It becomes blackish in age or when dried. Cortinarius gracilis Pk. In sphagnum and other mosses under balsam, tamarack and spruce trees. Much larger than the type. The strict, subcylindrical stems are much elongated, 8-15 cm long. Spores 10-11 by 5-6 microns. Cortinarius hemitrichus Fr. Attached to mosses and much de- cayed wood. . Cortinarius herpeticus Fr. Mossy ground, cedar ‘and balsam swamp. | Cortinarius iliopodius Fr. On sphagnum in a swamp of tamarack and spruce., In habit like C. decipiens, that 1s7)etemaee stemmed and with a conic-:ampanulate pileus. In color it ap- proaches C. paleaceus Fr. Spores 10-12 by 5-6.5 microns. Cortinarius iodes B. & C. Among mosses under balsam trees. Cortinarius juberinus Fr. A variety with the apex of the stem violaceous. On deep moss and sphagnum. Spores 7-8 Bs 5. 4 microns. | Cortinarius lutescens Pk. On 1a moist etound, conifer aod The olive color is more prominent than in the type. Cortinarius lilacinus Pk. On mosses under balsam. Cortinarius mucifluus Fr. In wet places near swamps. Usually referred to C. collinitus Fr. which is a very different plant approaching C. cylindripes Kauff. Cortinarius malicorius Fr. Or moss in spruce swamps. Habit of C. semisanguineus, but with dark green flesh. Cortinarius paleaceus Fr. In mossy woods. i f 4 : { ———————— er ™—™‘S™SC REPORT OF THE STATE BOTANIST IQI4 103 Cortinarius persicelis Fr. On the ground in a cedar swamp. The slender stem is persistently dark grayish lavender. (Ridg.) Spores 9-10 by 5-5.5 microns. Cortinarius pholideus Fr. On decayed wood and debris in birch and spruce woods. Cortinarius plumiger Fr. In mixed woods, on the ground. A very distinct species. The pileus is 5-12 cm broad, clothed with a dense tomentose-fibrillose covering. The stem, when fresh, is gray- ish blue-violet (Ridg.) within and without, but this color fades so quickly that it is usually absent. The stem is stout and very fibril- lose, sometimes annulate. _ Cortinarius pulcher Pk. Among mosses, tamarack swamp. Cortinarius redactus Britz. On mosses in conifer swamp. Cortinarius rigida Fr.
