ngorum omnium hucusque cognitorum; P. A. Saccardo. Vol. V. Padua, 1887. (Contains descriptions of all European Agarics up to date of publication. Later discoveries are contained in various supplements. Written in Latin.) Rysslands, Finlands och den Skandinaviska halfoens Hattsvampar; P. A. Karsten. Helsingfors, 1879.
