. Danish fungi as represented in the herbarium of E. Rostrup;. Fungi. 14 et alphabetico, Hafnia 1827, Hornemann 57 h and R 85 g). El.

In only a few cases have I considered it just to make some alterations. Oeder is the author of Chlorosplenium aeruginosum and of Hels vella atra both brought to him by Koenig from Iceland. Oeder has greatly promoted Danish mycology not only by giving the impetus to the pubhcation of the "Flora D,\nic.\" but also by working enthusiasm tically on the emancipation of the Danish peasants from villenage, this being a necessary condition of the revival of interest in plant culture and plant diseases among the farmers. The welbknown zoologist and botanist, Otto Frederik Muller, succeeded Oeder as editor of the "Flora Danica". He was born in Copenhagen 1750. At first he studied theology, but later on, especially after his appointment as tutor to count Schulin of Frederiksdal, he became a very enthusiastic naturalist who made many discoveries of microscopic animals and plants. He wrote several dissertations on them, while travels ling abroad, and his papers were so scattered in different foreign periodicals that I have been unable to make myself acquainted with many of them. He did not content himself merely with the portrayal and description of the discovered fungi, but was also deeply interested in their biology. He describes (1775) how he has been watching Cordyceps miJitaris for hours in order to observe how change of wind and moisture made the fungus expel spontaneous clouds of spores. The same "dustingout", he has also studied with other Ascomycetes f. inst. Bulgaria inquinans, Helvella spp., Spathularia etc. He writes about Carpobolus that he has seen the fungus fling ou
