Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Synopsis of the Genus Fomes
The Fomes of Europe and the United States are well known, and probably all species have been named. Also I feel sure, from the elaborate collections in the New York Botanical Gardens from tropical America, very few additional will ever be found froni this region. The remainder of the world, particularly Australia, Africa, Japan is but scantily represented in the museums, and many will yet be added from these little-worked regions. Still I think all the common species of the world are named.
