PRÆFATIO 

uinquaginta elapsi sunt anni post systematis mycologici 

Friesiani editionem, nec ullum opus posthinc prodiit, 

quod totius orbis mycetes complecti eniteretur. Quantum 

observationes mycologicæ (præcipue microscopii auxilio) per 

decem hæc lustra accretæ, quot et quantæ in tota morpho- 

logia et taxonomia fungorum acquisitiones factæ, quot spe- 

cies et genera nova descripta nemo profecto mycologorum 

ignorat; neminemque latet utilitas, ne dicam necessitas, li- 

bri cujuscumque, collectitii quidem, ubi species omnes hu- 

cusque descriptæ inveniantur. Hoc affirmare audeo quod 

si intra paucos annos liber hujuscemodi adhuc defuerit, my- 

cographia tota in chaos dilabi maxime periclitaretur ; nemo 

enim potest innumera opera, opuscula, diaria, annales, ubi 

quotidie species descriptæ sunt, consulere, et inde vel spe- 

cies novæ frustra conditæ vel vere novæ metu inexplora- 

tæ vel oblivioni traditæ. His perpensis, operis hujusmodi 

perscribendi propositum duobus abhinc annis mycologis ma- 

nifestavi. Et nunc eorum votis et incitamentis ferventissi- 

mis benignisque fretus, Syllogen fungorum omnium aggredior, 

Animus est, Deo favente, opus universum intra 

decennium absolvere et re vera copiosa adsunt jam mihi 

ad hoc perficiendum elementa. Sed magni mihi et scientiæ 

foret si collegæ æstumatissimi, gravissimi laboris partes 

quasdam suscipere velint; quo fieret ut et opus totum mul- 

to celerius prodiret et singulæ fungorum familiæ concinnius

VI Præfatio 

elaboratæ. De Sylloge, quam suscipio, sequentia præmonenda 

sunt. 

I. Species, quarum diagnoses eduntur, non paucæ a me 

ipso observatæ sunt; ceteræ ex mycologorum quam plurimorum 

operibus, quæ citantur, excerptæ sunt. De his vero 

sponsionem nullam mihi sumere licet. 

II. Contigisse potest quod species identica bis vel pluries 

variis nominibus exponatur: sed cum de æquipollentia 

nominum certitudo mihi adhuc desideretur, species omnes 

referre coactus fui, tutius judicium autoptis relinquens. 

III Diagnoses fungorum, quotquot potui (nec multas 

deesse spero) undecumque comparare studui. Mycologos tamen 

enixe rogo, ut si quas diagnoses sibi notas omiserim 

humanissime transmittant. Propositum est enim diagnoses 

omissas vel illas fungorum novorum quotannis imprimendi, 

et eo modo ut singula additamenta suis locis inseri queant. 

Mycologos insuper rogatos velim ut nominibus plantarum 

nutricum nonnisi latinis utantur et fungorum dimensiones 

tantummodo per millimetra et micromillimetra exprimant*). 

IV. Diagnoses ubi completas invenire potui, ex unico 

auctore exscripsi vel latine reddidi; sæpe vero e duobus, 

raro pluribus auctoribus sese invicem perficientibus erui. 

Hoc vero non feci nisi quum omnino certus essem diversas 

auctorum notas ad eamdem speciem pertinere. Si aliter, 

fontes vel dubia notavi. Diagnoses plurimas nimis longas, 

ablatis minoris momenti notis, breviavi, rarius reformavi. 

V. Species omnes hucusque cognitas, quantum fieri potuit, 

ad genera nuperrime strictius definita referre conatus 

sum. Studiosis tamen valde commendo ut suas species non 

sub uno genere inquirant, sed et sub affinibus omnibus; non 

*) In præsenti opere, ut in præcedentibus meis, ad organa minima metienda 

adhibetur micromillimetrum (= 1/1000 millimetri) quod exprimitur signo 

µ. Ubi adsunt numeri, interjecto signo , primus numerus denotat maximam 

longitudinem, alter vero maximam latitudinem organi v. fungi partis, 

de qua sermo est.

aro enim forte contigit ut species quasdam mihi non visas, 

ob ignorantiam characterum quorundam, ad genera non 

stricte sua, etsi affinia, invitus adduxerim. Conferantur e. 

g. species Hypoxyli et Nummulariæ, Didymellæ et Sphærellæ, 

Læstadiæ et Physalosporæ etc. etc.*). 

VI. Genera vastiora, quantum fieri potuit, in subgene- 

ra vel sectiones divisi; sed et hic contigisse potest, ut 

species, ob notas non plene definitas, ad sectionem non suam 

relatæ sint. Sub variis ergo generis sectionibus species 

late inquirendæ sunt. 

VII. Species minus certas ad singulorum generum cal- 

cem subjunxi; species vero prorsus dubias ad finem sub- 

ordinis vel ordinis singuli addidi, nolens ullas formas ne- 

gligere, ex eo quod fungi quoque male hodie definiti in 

posterum iterum reperiri riteque describi possint. 

VIII. Quoad fungos secundarios seu metageneticos (ad 

Ascomycetes spectantes) nomina plerumque tantum citavi; 

diagnoses vero sub proprio ordine reperientur. 

IX. De dispositione systematica adhibita pauca mihi no- 

tanda. In quoque ordine quod ex auctorum systematibus 

mihi rectius et simplicius visum prætuli. Quoad Pyrenomyceteas, 

Sphæropsideas, Melanconieas, Hyphomyceteas 

systema sporologicum meum cum vegetativo auctorum com- 

binatum, correctis corrigendis, adhibui. Si quid boni, sim- 

plicis et naturalis in hoc systemate insit, mycographia hæc 

universalis tute demonstrabit. 

X. Si observationes quasdam ab illis Auctorum desci- 

scentes addere necessarium duxerim, has inter signa « » 

imprimi curavi. 

XI. Index librorum mycologorum, (re vera fere omnium 

*) Errores et facillime vitandos nonnullos jam irrepsisse candide fateor. 

Sic species n. 881 evidentissime eadem est ac n. 847; species n. 2171 omnino 

eadem ac n. 2196. Sed lectores veniam dabunt, spero, ubi meminisse velint 

schedulas diagnosum fere innumeras et multiformes, perlongo labore fuisse 

mihi digerendas, seligendas et in systema ordinandas.

hucusque editorum) ex quibus diagnoses excerpsi, Syllogi 

præmittitur. Si libros quosdam et hinc diagnoses contentas 

omiserim mycologis tunc facile patebit. 

XII. Ad finem cujusque sectionis vel subordinis addidi 

repertorium alphabeticum specierum secundum matrices, 

quod quam utile sit in nominibus fungorum inquirendis 

nemo est qui ignoret. Tam repertorium istud, quam indicem 

librorum prædictum, peritiæ et diligentiæ JACOBI BIZ- 

ZOZERO, Horti patavini conservatori debeo, cui publice permultas 

ago gratias. 

Restat nunc ut botanicis æstumatissimis amicisque plurimis 

tam Europæ quam Americæ, qui operi meo strenue 

variisque rationibus faverunt, gratias perquam maximas 

agam. Inter quos licitum sit mihi illos tantum citare qui 

vel suorum magni pretii operum duplum exemplar mittendo, 

vel libros perraros mycologicos commodando vel transcribendo, 

vel tandem operis notitiam per diaria benevole 

diffundendo, Sylloges vitam excitarunt; qui sunt: M. J. BER-

1) Referre lætor illustrissimum et venerabilem BERKELEY benevole mihi 

misisse (præter alia opera sua) schedulas permultas diagnoses Hymenomycetum 

a se jam editorum continentes, quas paraverat ad Syllogen concinnandam, 

quæ in omnium votis erat. Occupationes vero tardaque ætas propositum 

impediverunt. Utinam celeberrimo Viro datum sit fructus suos videre 

cunctos in hac Sylloge systematice recollectos. 

2) Fungorum aliquot nondum plene descriptorum egregius et amicus prof. 

PENZIG paravit adumbrationes, quibus usus sum ad eorumdem diagnoses perficiendas.
