Kuakué. May. 954. Frequent in the scrub area on various trees ; often 
associated with scale insects and bark-living larvee. 
The species is distinguished from A. Robinsonit by the stouter hyphæ, and 
by the moniliform threads being slightly rough (punctate). Compared with 
A. scoriadea, the hyphæ are more frequently branched, and the branches are 
more slender towards the apex; moreover, there is greater variety in the 
types of hyph present. No form of fruit-body is present in these specimens.

The peculiar forked outgrowths were noted to be white when fresh, but in 
formalin, as in all the dried material seen, they have become quite black. 
Distribution probably that of the host. Recorded from Nepal, Ceylon, 
Fiji, Samoa, Queensland. In the Kew Herbarium there is a previous 
specimen from New Caledonia on a collection of A. aristatum Sw., made 
by Deplanche.

A large and distinct species, differing from Æ. furfuracea in the spores 
and in the nature of the outer covering. The latter consists of minute,
