endapalus, Australia, Berkeley. This has been published as the same as Fomes
caliginosus. It is known from one collection only, which may be young caliginosus,
but appears different to me, softer, subresupinate, with different habit of growth.
Fomes caliginosus grows in abundance in the Philippines and other Eastern islands
and countries, but there are no typical species from Australia at Kew. Endapalus
seems to be pidgin Latin or typographical error for endopalus, as the specimen was
labeled by Berkeley.
endophaeus, India, Berkeley. No type exists, but from description most
probably it was Fomes melanoporus.
Engelii, Europe, Harz = Fomes rufo-flavus. Specimen at Berlin.
enteroleucus, Chili, Fries. Xo type exists. In a general way the description
suggests a Ganodermus, but the "white" context forbids.
epimiltinus, Ceylon, Berkeley. Known from type only at Kew. A resupinate
piece, a Poria.
Evonymi, Europe, Kalchbrenner, = Fomes ribis. However, it is usually of a
brighter color than the form on Ribis.
excavatus, British America, Berkeley, as a variety of Fomes fomentarius.
It is the type form on birch. See our figure (584), made from this "type."
expansus, Europe, Desmazieres. Two quite different species are found in
Desm. exsiccatae under this name. One of them seems to me a resupinate form
of Fomes fomentarius, that is, the same pores, but I do not know that Fomes
fomentarius is ever resupinate. Fries so lists it. It was an abnormal growth in a
cellar or mine. In Desmazieres' herbarium at Paris most of the specimens under
this name are a Poria, resembling Poria ferruginosa as to color, but having no setae.
fasciatus, Jamaica, Swartz. I have seen no type. At the British museum is
a very old specimen, collected in Jamaica by "Mr. Poore," which I had supposed
was the type xx>f Swartz, but on noting it again carefully, I see there is nothing to
connect it with Swartz. In the sense of this specimen the plant is the same as Fomes
marmoratus, and I have heretofore so used the name. I am told by Mr. Romell
that there exists in Sweden a type from Swartz which is not Fomes marmoratus,
hence I must adopt Berkeley's name as fasciatus originally was not this plant.
flaviporus, Europe, Quelet. This is the mss. name under which Quelet sent
Fomes laccatus to Fries. It is still so preserved at Upsala. Quelet evidently published
it as Fomes resinosus.
focalis, Africa, Kalchbrenner. Xo type found in any museum.
fuliginosus, Europe, Scopoli. The old description of Scopoli is a guess at best.
By Quelet and others used as a juggle for Polyporus benzoinus, which appears to
be a good guess, but is illegal now, and in any event never was a Fomes.
Fullageri, Australia, Berkeley. Xo type exists.
fulvus, Europe, Schaeffer. The old figure appears to me to be a crude cut of
Fomes roseus. His remarks do not apply at all. It is also alleged to be Fomes
pinicola. Xo one knows what it is.
furcatus, Java, Junghuhn. Xo type found by me at Leiden (cfr. Letter 37).
Junghuhn cites a figure, but never published it.
fusco-purpureus, Europe, Boudier, = Fomes torulosus.
gelsicolor, Europe, Berlese. Xo specimen known to me, but from figures,
description, and spores, it is based on a half-ungulate specimen of Fomes applanatus.
gelsorum, Europe, Fries. Known to this day only from the crude cut of Battarrea
of over 150 years ago, and based on an assertion in the start.
Gillotii, Europe, Roumeguere (as Polvporus), = Fomes annosus, vide cotypes
at Berlin.
glabrescens, Mauritius, Berkeley. This I would refer to Fomes geotropus. It
differs slightly in having a smoother surface, but is too close to maintain as distinct.
glaucotus, Japan, Cooke, =adamantinus. The type at Kew is the only
Japanese collection known.
Gourliei, Australia, Berkeley. Only known from the "type locality." A little
remnant that should never have been named. Surely not a Fomes in any event.
Endorsed now as a form of Polystictus occidentalis.
grenadensis, West Indies, Murrill. This is based on one collection from Grenada,
and appears to be exceptional in having the narrow pore layers separated by very-
narrow but distinct context layers. Context cinnamon brown. Pores minute, the
narrow unusual layers strongly distinct on account of the interposed context. The
