    PREFACE. The aim of this little work is almost purely morpho- logical ; physiological details are only occasionally introduced. The two first chapters are translated, with additions, the more important of which are in- dicated by square brackets [ ], from Dr. G. Winter's edition of Die Pilze, in Rabenhorst's Kryptoga- men-Flora, by kind permission of the author. With a view to increase its usefulness, I have added to the few figures there given a considerable number drawn from various sources, in many cases from the original authorities, and a few of my own. I must acknow- ledge my indebtedness, for help of various kinds, to Dr. Winter, and also to Dr. John Anthony, of Bir- mingham, and Mr. James Britten ; and, in addition, to the Summary of Current Researches, in the Journal of the Royal Microscopical Society, as a guide to the literature of the subject.
