FARLOW. The present list is a continuation of Bibliographical Contributions no. 25, which included the titles of works on the fungi of the United States and the northern parts of North America published prior to 1887. The plan followed is the same as that of the paper just mentioned, the object being to give additions and corrections to be made to the list of works previously published with the addition of titles of works which appeared in 1887. The original list with the present supplement is as complete a presentation of the subject as the writer is able to make, and as he does not propose to continue the work further it is to be hoped that some other person or persons will undertake the task hereafter.
