Abstract
THE letter from Dr. O. Rosenheim in NATURE of October 27, p. 622, would doubtless cause astonishment to many mycologists. Amanita muscaria is one of the commonest toadstools, and is to be found amongst almost any clump of birch trees in this country, consequently being a common sight in woods and on commons near London. The association between fungus and tree, moreover, is so constant that it is not unlikely that the mycelium is one of those concerned in forming birch mycorrhiza.
