Iam perfectly aware of the opinions which have been expressed byother botanists (and to which I shall return), but it is not so much 14 Ueprodudion in the Mushroom Tribe. By W. G. Smith. my aim to make my observations accord with what others havesaid, as to record what I have seen myself, and to give my own in-terpretation of the phenomena seen, irrespective of what has beensaid or done before. The first sign of differentiation in the simple cells of the gills,when the basidia and cystidia are about to be produced, is in theprivileged cells becoming glossy, crystalline, and translucent: theyboth appear to secrete a material which makes them conspicuouslybrilliant. Each basidium then throws out four slender branches,the tips of which gradually swell and form spores. The cystidia(W) are more sparingly produced (
