166 ME. GEOEGE MASSEE ON THE THELEPHOBE-E. 



Not a good Mesopod form, but frequently laterally attached by 

 a broad base for several inches ; margin undulato-plicate, densely 

 crowded, at first infundibuliform, soon split into numerous lobes, 

 which are again more or less divided ; dull reddish-brown, marked 

 with long grooves or striae ; hymenium pale, much cracked, 

 sometimes so much as to be granulated. Allied to S. involufum, 

 but much more split and lobed, with an obsolete stem and paler 

 hymenium. The hymenium is not granulated from the begin- 

 ning, but merely in consequence of the frequent cracking of the 

 fructiferous stratum. 



Steeeum Moselei, Berk. S. pileo ex infundibuliformi flabel- 

 lato, subtiliter velutino, subzonato, cervino ; margine pallidiore ; 

 stipite e basi parva oriundo opaco pallido ; hymenio rufulo ; 

 sporae ellipsoideae, 6X4 /lc. — Berk, in Journ. Linn. Soc. (Bot.) 

 xvi. p. 48. (Type in Herb. Kew.) 



Malamon, upon sticks (' Challenger ' Eccp.). Victoria. 



Pileus about J in. across, stem \ in. high ; sometimes several 

 spring from the same confluent base ; stem occasionally of the 

 same colour with the hymenium. {Berkeley.) 



Infundibuliform, gregarious, several pilei often grown together ; 

 stems thin, free. 



Steeeum calyculus, Berk. Sf Curt. Pusillum ; pileo cyathi- 

 formi, subtiliter tomentoso, opaco, umbrino ; stipite gracile, con- 

 colore ; hymenio albido, obsolete venoso ; sporae globosae, 5 f* 

 diam.— Berk, fy Curt, in Hook. Keio Journ. i. p. 238 ; Grev. i- 

 p. 161. (Type in Herb. Berk. n. 5755.) 



On dead wood. Southern United States. 



Pileus cup-shaped, £ inch broad, extremely thin, umber, 

 opaque, minutely tomentose ; stem \ inch high, g line thick, 

 umber ; hymenium whitish, very obscurely venose. 



Allied to Stereum curtum, Fr., and S. pusillum, Berk., but 

 especially to the latter, and distinguished by its very regular 

 pileus, which is not at all shining or apparently zoned.
