BERKELEY’S TYPES OF FUNGI. 515 
Vibrissea turbinella, Sacc. Syll. viii. n. 174. 
Peziza stilboidea, Berk. Dec. Fung. n. 359, in Hook. Journ. 
Bot. vol. iii. (1851) p. 204. 
Vibrissea stilboidea, Sace. Syll. viii. n. 176. 
On the under surface of leaves of Pyrus sp. Tonglo, Ind. Or. 
(Dr. [now Sir] J. D. Hooker). 
Prziz4 Jounsront, Berk. in Ann. $ Mag. Nat. Hist. vol. xiii. 
(1844) p. 17. 
This species is synonymous with Peziza fusca, Pers. Obs. i. 
p. 29 (1799). 
PEZIZA ERIOBASIS, Berk. in Ann. $ Mag. Nat. Hist. vol. xiii. 
(1844) p. 355. (Pl. XVIII. fig. 6.) 
Solitary, or more frequently in scattered groups of 2-5 indi- 
viduals densely crowded together; ascophores subglobose and 
closed at first, then plane or the extreme margin slightly raised, 
usually irregular in form from mutual pressure, 3-14 mm. across ; 
disc white, becoming yellowish with age or when dry, outside 
white and downy, seated on a snow-white, delicate, radiating 
mycelium, formed of branched septate hyphx about 4 p thick ; 
asci clavate, apex slightly narrowed ; spores 8, 2-seriate, elliptic- 
oblong, hyaline, continuous, 5-6 x 1:5 u ; paraphyses very slender, 
cylindrical. 
On the inside of bark. Sherwood Forest, Notts (Berkeley). . 
Tapesia eriobasis, Phillips, Brit. Disc. p. 278; Sace. Syll. viii. 
n. 1582; Massee, Fungus-Flora, vol. iv. p. 300. 
Differs from other species of Tapesia in the groups of asco- 
phores being more distant from each other than is usual in the 
genus. Each group is surrounded by its own snow-white radiating 
hyphæ; and unless the groups happen to be near to each other, 
the mycelium does not coalesce to form a continuous subiculum. 
Resembling Peziza candidata, Cooke in Grevillea, vol. i. (1872) 
p- 130, in habit. 
PEZIZA MUTABILIS, Berk. $ Broome, in Aun. d Mag. Nat. Hist 
ser. IT. vol. vii. (1851) p. 14. (Pl. XVIII. fig. 7.) 
Scattered or gregarious, appearing as minute, dark-brown 
downy points ; ascophore at first subglobose and closed, gradually 
expanding until quite plane, about 2 mm. across; disc whitish, 
externally brown and glabrous; cortex parenchymatous, cells 
subcircular or obtusely hexagonal, brownish, 7-10 p diameter, 
running out into narrow, elongated, parallel cells at the very
