172 REV. J. M. CROMBIE ON LICHENS 



Lecanora cinnabariza, Nyl. Vix nisi subspecies L. cinnabarince, 

 differens thallo tenuissirao rimoso, ambitu non effigurato (vel inter par- 

 ticulas prominentes substrati disserpens) ; apothecia innata depressa. 

 Sporae longit. 0-009-0-013 millim., crassit. 0-005-0-00/ milliin. 



On rocks ; very sparingly gathered. 



L. aurantiaca * erythrella, Ach. Thallus luteo-vitelline or sub- 

 pallescent. SporesO-015-0017millim.long.,0008-0-009millim.thick. 



On stones, associated with other lichens ; sparingly. 



L. subunicolor, Nyl., sp. n. Affinis L. fulgescenti, Nyl. Lich. St. 

 Paul, p. 6, sed thallo tenuiore, minus laeto, vitellino-aurantiaco, laevi, 

 rimuloso ; apotheciis aurantiacis biatoroideis (in L.fulgescente lecano- 

 rinis). Sporae longit. 0009-0-014 millim., crassit. 0-005-0-008 millim. 



On rocks ; very sparingly gathered. 



L. pyropcecila, Nyl., sp. n. Thallus vitellino-aurantiacus opacus, 

 minute granulosus, dispersus ; apothecia croceo-aurantiaca (latit. eir- 

 citer 0'5 millim.) margine thallino non prominulo. Sporae longit. 

 0-011-0-013 millim., crass. 0'007-0008 millim. 



In external appearance this is almost similar to some small state 

 of L.scMstidii (Anzi); but the spores are different. From L. py- 

 racea it at once differs in the granular thallus and the apothecia 

 not being biatoroid. 



On rocks ; very sparingly seen. 



L. pvracea, f. picta (TayL), Nyl. Apothecia distinctly margined ; 



spores 0-011-0016 millim. long, 0-006-0008 millim. thick. 

 On rocks, associated with other lichens. 



L. pr^emicaxs, Nyl., sp. n. Subsirailis L. ferruginece (Huds.), sed 

 apothecia laetius tincta, cinnabarino-coccinea (biatorina). Sporae 

 longit. 0-009-0*015 millim., crassit. 0006-0008 millim.; paraphyses 

 gracilentse. 



Colore apotheciorum maxime insignis. Thallus sordide albidus, inae- 

 qualis, rugulosus. Apothecia plana, marginata (latit. 1 millim. vel 

 minora), margine demum flexuoso ; partes coloratae ex acido chryso- 

 phanico reagentes. 



On the bark of trees ; only a single small specimen seen. 



L. confragosula, Nyl., sp. n. Thallus cinereus tenuis areolato-squa- 

 mulosus vel areolato-diffractus (K — ), hypothallo nigro instratus; 

 apothecia nigra minuta ( juniora margine thallino subalbicante tenui 

 subcrenulato cincta, dein evanescente), plana (latit. 0*4 millim. vel 

 minora) ; sporae 8nae, fuscae l-septatae, longit. 0*015-0020 millim., 

 crassit. 0008-0'Oli millim. ; epithecium fuscum ; paraphyses distinctly 

 mediocres ; hypothecium incolor. lodo gelatina hymenialis caerules- 

 cens, dein vinose rubens.
