BOLETUS sinuosus.
In September 1793, I gathered the uppermost specimen on the root of an old poplar in Lambeth, where there were many larger ones all attached by the back. The pores are sinious, oblong, or varying" in every direction; the pileus tomentose, knobby, zoned, and undulating in ridges towards the edges, often much imbricated. The lower specimen was gathered from the same spot in the December following, when the plants were almost black, with a gum or glutinous pitchy-looking substance on the pileus, particularly towards its edges, and the tomentose appearance was loft: at both periods they were whitish within, and altogether of the same fibrous or woolly texture, and woody hardness.

BOLETUS impuber. Bull.
Rarely found in an advanced state. Lady Arden first sent me full grown specimens. When first appearing it often resembles a Byffus, with here and there some pores indicating a Boletus[1]. Sometimes we find little else than pores[2]. It is attached by the back, the pores somewhat unequal and small; the pileus rugged and zoned; its growing edges velvety. At an advanced period it is more or less smooth in its general surface.
