" Subiculum obsolete ; hymenium consisting of branched 

 creeping threads, each branch of which bears at the tip a cluster 

 of dirty yellow subglobose spores." (Berkeley) 



Very thin and indeterminate. Agreeing in habit with the 

 loosely felted form of C. arachnoideum. The fertile branches 

 mentioned by Berkeley are erect threads which become branched 

 at the apex, and produce several basidia. None of the specimens 

 show a typical compacted hymenium.
