Their form varies much, according as they occur on a branch (n- on the stem. In the former case, the sporophore forms a swelling below and on each side of the more or less horizontal branch. On the stem they are more or less bracket-like. The sporopliores are reddish brown with a smooth upper surface on which zones are only faintly indicated or altogether absent. Internally they are of a biownish or tawny colour, and exhibit concentric strata, which do not extend into the pore-layer; they are thus distinguished from sporophores of P. igniarius and others. The sporophores \ ⢠h â ⢠vV' WW 'â¢'^'^ ^'^^T frequent on cankered stems of ?\ rt-' t' S'SiV fir where the canker-spots afford easy entrance for the spores. The wood-destruction consists in a white-rot. The wood becomes yellowish- W'hite with clear spots and fine dark lines, especially where in contact with healthy parts. The mycelium is yellow- ish, and consists of thick hyphae with lateral branches forming tangled masses which frequently fill up the cavity of the bordered pits. This mycelium gives off very fine branches which bore through the cell-walls and dissolve them in such a way that the middle lamellae disappear first and leave the remainder of the wall- thickening for a time isolated before it too is used up. In this way large holes are formed in the elements of the wood. Polyporus sistotremoides (All), et Schw.) (P. Schiveinitzii Fr. or P. mollu Fr. of II. Hartig)^ (Britain). Sporophores almost circular with a short thick central stalk; while young they are light brown and spongy, luit when older become dark brown and corky. The upper surface is downy; the hymenial layer extends far down the st
