The small suborbicular patches are sometimes elongated 
by confluence, The color is of a clear whitish sulphur hue, 
The teeth appear like little conical papill«. 
Craterellus dubius Pk. Pileus infundibuliform, 
subfibrillose, lurid-brown, pervious to the base, the margin 
generally wavy and lobed; hymenium dark cinereous, rugose 
when moist, the minute crowded irregular folds abundantly 
anastomosing, nearly even when dry; stem short; spores 
broadly elliptical or subglobose, .00025°—.0003‘ long. Plant 
simple or caespitose, 2'—3’ high, pileus 1’—2’ broad. 
Ground under spruce trees. Aug. 
In color this species bears some resemblance to Can- 
tharellus cinereus. From Craterellus sinuosus, it is separated 
by its pervious stem, and from C, cornucopioides by its more 
c#spitose habit, paler color and smaller spores, 
Clavaria fumigata Pk. Stem short, thick, branching 
from near the base, whitish; branches numerous, forming a 
dense mass, smoky-ochraceous, sometimes tinged with lilae; 
tips obtuse ; spores .0003'—.,0005’ long. 
Ground in woods. Aug. 
The tufts are 4—5‘ high and remarkable for their smoky 
or dingy color. 
Clavaria corynoides Pk. Small, simple, elavate; 
club obtuse, yellowish, or cream colored, gradually narrowed 
below and losing itself in the short white stem, 
Gregarious, about half an inch high. 
Damp ground by roadsides. Aug. 
Hymenula olivacea Pk. Thin, closely applied to 
the matrix, olive-green, shining, subviscid, detinite or sub- 
confluent, with a narrow raised margin which is sometimes 
whitish; spores minute, cylindrical, straight, trinueleate, 
colorless, .0002‘ long. 
Dead stems of Eupatorium ageratoides. Sept. 
Lycoperdon glabellum Pk. Subglobose or sub- 
turbinate, 1’—1.5' broad, sometimes narrowed below into a 
short stem-like base, furfuraceous with very minute nearly 
uniform persistent warts, which appear to the naked eye 
like minute granules or papille, an opening by a small 
aperture; inner mass purplish-brown, capilliium with a 
central columella; spores purplish-brown, globose, rough, 
.0002°—.00025' in diameter. 
Ground in copses and in pine woods. Autumn. 
. , The verruc® or spinules are so minute, that at first 
sight, they are scarcely visible, the peridium appearing 
nearly smooth. They persist even in the old and flaceid 
condition of the plant. The species is manifestly closely
