luridescens, Jamaica, Murrill. Based on old weathered and discolored specimens
of Polyporus obtusus.
luteo-cinereus, Europe, Britzelmayr. Unknown. Said to have white context
and pores, and colored spores. Noteworthy if true, but probably not ture. Britzelmayr
was a great discoverer of things that probably do not exist.
luteiporus, Europe, Opiz. Xomen nudum.
Macouni, United States, Peck. No type exists. Given in Saccardo as a
variety of Polyporus dichrous which seems to have been a bad guess unless Polyporus
dichrous has changed its spore shape since. Instead of being "globose" they are
"rod shape" in Polyporus dichrous.
MacOwani, Africa, Kalchbrenner = Polyporus adustus. Type at Kew.
macroporus, Java, Leveille. Xo type known, nor any plant known that is
"comparable to Polyporus hispidus but covered with a thick, hard scaly crust."
macroporus, Europe, Britzelmayr. Unknown. Carton not found by me.
maculatus, United States, Peck. Changed to Polyporus guttulatus but is
a synonym for Polyporus alutaceus of Europe.
Marianus, Pacific Islands, Persoon. The type a single specimen in poor condition
is at Paris. I believe it to be Polyporus anebus of this pamphlet and if true,
a very much earlier name for it. The specimen was glued to paper so that the
surface does not show. It may be the red stained form called Polyporus bicolor.
maritimus, Europe, Quelet. Unknown to any one I think. Quelet sent Fries
a specimen but there is nothing left of it now. Said to have fusiform spores 10-12
mic. long. General description reads something like alutaceus excepting as to
spores.
Martellii, Europe,
Mexicanus, (bis)
Bresadola. A form of Polyporus resinaceus.
Mexico, Patouillard. Unknown to me. Compared to
lacteus.
I
micromegas, Cuba, Montagne. Types small and unsatisfactory are at Paris.
think they are same as Polyporus guadelupensis. They have been referred to
Polyporus zonalis but are different in my opinion.
microscopicus, Java, Junghuhn. No type found by me.
microstomus, Cuba, Berkeley = Polyporus concrescens.
Mollerianus, Africa, Saccardo. This teste Bresadola is a stipitate form of
Polyporus vinosus. It seems to occur in Africa only. At Kew is a specimen which
is exactly Polyporus vinosus in every character excepting it is reduced to the base
to a short stipe. We use the name (page 342) as a form name.
mollicomus, Europe, Britzelmayr. The description reads like Polyporus
borealis. The cartoon I did not locate. His cartoon of Polyporus borealis has
not the most remote resemblance to Polyporus borealis, hence you can draw your
own conclusions, which is more than you can do as to most of the crude sketches
of this modern European "scientist."
mollissimus, China, Patouillard. Unknown to me. Compared to Polyporus
spumeus.
molluscus, Europe, Karsten. Unknown. From description appears to be
the white form of Polyporus amorphus.
monochrous, Cuba, Berkeley = Polyporus capucinus. This was a mss. name
for Wright No. 158 which when published was referred to Polyporus chrysites.
morosus, Europe, Kalchbrenner = Polyporus benzoinus. Specimens de Thum
713 and Rabenhorst 1605 in several museums. In Austria it is said to be "rarissime"
which may explain why Kalchbrenner discovered it to be a "new species".
nauseosus, West Indies, Patouillard. Not seen by me. Said to be a white
species with viscid pileus and foetid odor. Viscid Polyporus are rare. Murrill
who has skimmed over Patouillard's herbarium, merely informs us that it is a
"doubtful species" but what the "doubt" is about he does not state.
nidulans, Europe, Fries = Polyporus rutilans. The Friesian name has been
generally used in America. Both are legal now, so you can take your choice. If
Blytt's specimen of "rutilans Fries in Litt." is correct, Fries had no conception of
Persoon's species, and as Persoon gave such a fine illustration of Polyporus rutilans
there was not a bit of excuse for Fries to rename it.
nigro-purpurascens, United States, Schweinitz = Polyporus dichrous as announced
some fifty-odd years ago.
nitidulus, Japan, Berkeley. Type little remnants from which nothing can
