ANNALES HISTORICO-NATURALES MUSEI NATIONALES HUNGARICI Toraus 59. PARS BOTANICA 1967. Data to the Knowledge of the Coprophilous Microscopic Fungi in Hungary. III. By S. TÓTH, Budapest In the present paper, I discuss 209 data referring to (52 species. Informations concerning collecting and the method of culture on natural substrates, submitted in the first communication of this series (Ann. Hist.-nat. Mus. Nat. Hung., 55, 1963, p. 181 — 185), are valid also for this paper. The remarks made on the distinguishing (or rather the impossibility of doing so) of the dung of the red deer and the roe, given in the second communication (ibid., 57, l965, p. 149—157), also still hold. I wish to express my thanks, also in this place, to I. KONECSNI (National Agricultural Quality Research Institute, Budapest), and to A. HORÁNSZKY (Phytosystematieal Institute of the L. EÖTVÖS University of Sciences, Budapest), for their help in collecting, and to L. ZELLER (Microbiological Institute of the L. EÖTVÖS University of Sciences, Budapest), for her valuable aid in rearing cultures of a number of species on artificial substrates. The material discussed in the present paper is deposited in the Botanical Department of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest. Myxomycètes Didymium difforme (PERS.) DUBY — 5088. Cattle dung.

On the "Nagyszénás" near Nagykovácsi, 16 May, 1964 (spores: 9.8 — 11.6 u.). 5085. Cattle dung. "Feketesár" near Szilvásvárad, 31 July, 1962 (spores: 15.1 — 16 — 17.8 u.). 5116. Deer dung.

sarum didermoides (ACHAR.) ROST. — 5087. Hare dung. Near Csévharaszt, 28 Aug., 1964. Sporangia stalked. Most of the sporangia are poor in chalk, but I saw two sporangial groups which agreed with the description from also this point of view. 5119. Cattle dung. Near Füzesabony, 1 Sent., 1964 (spores: 11.6—12.5 The sporangia are sessile, not stalked nor conical, but more or less globose or slightly flattened. The sporangial wall belongs here, owing to its structure and the dimensions of the spores.
