FUNGI COLLECTED IN ICELAND IN 1935 AND 1937
In the following list of fungi from Iceland the classification is based
on the system given by Ernst Gaumann in his work: V e r-
gleichende Morphologie der Pilzfe, Jena 1926.
When a species has been collected in several localities, these are,
as far as possible, arranged according to their distribution in the follow-
ing succession: East-, North-, North-West, West- and South-Iceland
(cp. J. Boye Petersen, The Botany of Iceland, vol. II,
part II, p. 259).
The designations in the descriptions of the Agaricaceae consisting
of a letter and a figure, e.g. (h4) refer to the colour plate painted by
Jakob E. Lange for his paper, Studies in the Agarics
o f Denmark, Part VI (Dansk bot. Arkiv, Bd. 4, Nr. 12, 1926).
This colour plate is also to be found in Poul Larsen, Fungi
of Iceland.
