Notes

293. X A Naucoria semiorbicularis (Fries) (4,8,16) = Agrocybe semiorbicularis (Fries) Fayod

Although the material (BERGGREN 61) is half destroyed by insects all the diagnostic microscopical characters of this European species were found. It is apparently an introduced fungus in New Zealand.
