Pileus attached to the apex of stipe, companulate, trun- cate, gleba not extending to apex. Apex consists of a smooth ring surrounding the perforation which is at first closed with a gelatinous membrane which is the inner wall of the indusium. Pileus 5 mm. long, 5 mm. in diameter at base. Reticulate pitted after deliquesence. Growing among leaves in woods, Spring Valley, Granville, O., Nov. 5, 1893. This species is reported by Morga

The morphological relations of the organs of the flower have been the subject of much discussion and while those rela- tions are quite clearly expressed for the perianth and stamens and carpels there still remains much doubt about the ovules and pollen sac. While it can not be argued that malformations nec- essarily assume the archetypical form and that teratological evi- dence is always conclusive still the fact remains that these abnor- mal expressions of floral development often illustrate more clearly the morphological relations than the normal develop- ment. Striking examples of these modifications are often use- ful in instruction. The following have been observed and entered upon our register as being worthy of notice. As the sepals are more closely related to the leaves in their position on the stem it is to be expected that the rever- sions to type will there be found more common. Fig. i, presents one of these reversions where in the gamosepalous calyx of the Fuchsia one of the limbs has sep- arated from the tube leaving its place vacant and has become.
